  1. Brandie seems to be doing well. I haven't gotten a medical update from her in a while but hope to visit her soon.

    Wes and I are going to Uganda in January (no Sept trip).

    We recently sold the dance studio. Please pray for the new owners and all of our students to handle this transition well.

    That's all of my updates…I think! :) Thanks!!

  2. We've had our friend Jack on the list for a long time, John just spoke with his son and was told that the doctors have doen all that they can treatment wise for him, and there is nothing left to do. The cancer is taking it's toll on his body and his spirits are down. He feels defeated. Please pray for quality family time, ease in family tensions, and God's unfailing comfort and peace for all.

    Thanks!
    Suzanne and John
