Great Easter/Heavy hearted Monday

Easter was great! We were treated to dinner at some friends who used to be our next door neighbors and then moved up north by Savannah. They are Christians and so Easter is a very special occasion to them (as it is to us). We ate and played a dice game until well into the evening. There was his sister who we know well and then his nephew, his daughter and her daughter (only 9 months old). We had not been able to fellowship with the Darr's much at all in recent times becuse of hectric lives and it was great to spend time with them.

Today, my heart is heavy. Josh is at Children's Mercy having the tests on his heart. We do not know if he has to stay all night or not and it depends on the results of the initial tests. Also I have been following a blogsopt of a 1 year old that had a brain tumor and she passed away Saturday night. Her family is obviously Christian and I know God will get them through but please pray for them as they bury their only child.

Also, Mark Bond ministered at our church as the Creative Arts Minister until he and his beautiful wife and children moved for him to take a job at a church near Joplin. Mark's dad had cancer a couple of years ago and they thought it was all removed by surgery but it has speread and he recently had surgery for it and was starting to recover but he developed an infection and now is not expected to recover. They are a family that is soo in love with the Lord but still need our prayers. I am especially praying for Mark's mom (I don't know her first name) but I am sure they have been married a great number of years. The blogspot for Mr. Bond http://raymondbond.blogspot.com/

Galatians 6:2 Bear one another's burdens and so fulfill the law of Christ.
