Pastor's Blog

Word came to me shortly before lunch today (Saturday) that the doctors had called Caroline’s family in.  Obviously, that usually means to expect the worse regarding continuation of earthly life.  Caroline was not coherent.  I was in Birmingham and had two ministries opportunities already in place.

I cancelled the two opportunities and Lisa and I headed to Mobile arriving at the hospital around 4:30PM.  Caroline had been moved to ICU but to our surprise she was awake, alert and talking.  She did not remember much about yesterday but otherwise seemed to be good.  Amazing!

The medical folks are pretty certain that Caroline has some form of leukemia.  The test results should be known either Monday or Tuesday.  Pray.

I want to say “thank you” to the deacons, Bro. Jerry, Bro. Benny and all others from the Friendship family who ministered to Caroline and family today.  What a great group of servants.  I knew that in my absence there was no shortage of folks who would be there to minister.  Special thanks to Betty Creech for being such a good friend to Caroline and being there for her.

So, just pray and I will keep you updated via this blog.  Blessings!
