Blogging Break

It has not felt right to spend much time blogging about things unrelated to life and death during this difficult week for our family back home. Although we cannot be with them physically, we are receiving updates almost daily and praying continually. I have decided to take a blogging break for the rest of this week but wanted to ask once more for your prayers for the family of Connie Bailey as her funeral and burial is taking place today, and for the family of Karen Peters as her funeral and burial take place tomorrow. Please pray for their sister Delora who is suffering physically but also suffering a great deal emotionally at this time. Also, if you would pray for my dad as he will be officiating at Karen’s funeral on Thursday.

I located both Connie and Karen’s obituaries online, which share a little more about them and their families.

Thank you for praying.

I was at Karen's funeral yesterday; the church was packed. Jonathan will be ok knowing his best friend is in God's presence.

Romans 8:28 is a promise that God will bring good out of this bad situation.
