TUESDAY, 4/27/10
Wow, God showed up and He blessed us in a special way the past two days. We saw a good number of salvation decisions. Some folks I knew, some I didn’t. Pray for us as we seek to follow up with those who made decisions and connect those from other churches to their pastors/student ministers/et cetera.
On that note, we will observe the ordinance of baptism this Sunday evening, 5/2, as a part of our evening service.
Glenn Cooper’s dad, Glenn Cooper, Sr., will have surgery this morning. Pray that this will correct the problems he has been experiencing.
Barbara Nevin (Rob’s mother) came through surgery okay. The doctor said it was more involved than he originally thought but that everything went well. She will be hospitalized for several days.
I really don’t have an update on anyone else. I did learn that Gracey Cook checked in at 8 pounds 1 ounce and was 21 inches long. I am “assuming” that Mary & Gracey will come home today.
Pastor Mike Soesbe, 1st St. Elmo, is still battling his cancer. It appears his earthly life in near an end. Pray for him, his wife, their children, and the church family.
We received an e-mail from Michael & Linda Robertson of how God allowed them to arrive safely back into Siberia. Really neat stuff to see the hand of God at work in their lives!
I am still processing all that God did over these past two days. I do believe it was a divine appointment. I would love to see the Friendship family move to a higher level in our walk with God. It can happen!
I pray that you will have a great Tuesday with Jesus.

Morning Pastor,
Bernard and I were able to scoot away for a few days last week and remarkably all went fine while we were out of town. Gage is due to finish his radiation treatment on 5/7. Over the weekend he started to develop more of the knee pain he had a few weeks ago and nausea that has gotten progressively worse. Last night he or Callie did not sleep much and the doctors are giving him Zofran today and it is a really good drug for this type of nausea. Dr. Gilbert told Callie today that if the Zofran doesn’t take care of the nausea he is probably going to go ahead with an MRI and see if there is some change that could be causing this problem, especially since it started after he had finished his radiation for the week.
Callie and Gage as well as our whole family remain encouraged and steadfast in our Faith for Gage’s healing.
