Life has come to a screeching halt this past week and a half, when we first heard that my dear sister-in-law, Laurie, was going to have MRI’s done to look for a brain tumor. This past Thursday we heard the news that it was, indeed, a tumor. That Thursday, 3 days ago, feels like weeks. It’s been a busy past few days, and Laurie is scheduled for surgery tomorrow morning, February 8. Laurie is 18.
God is real, and has been meeting us with great peace. It is truly amazing. An extremely painful and difficult time for the family, but God is real.

Please keep Laurie, as well as the Yoder family, in your prayers…

I prayed for her and your family. This brings back so many memories of Gabriel’s tumor. I don’t know if there’s anything we can do to help, but we’d sure be glad to try if needed. May God be close to all of you.
I had no idea! I will certainly be praying….
big hugs to you~

Wow, that sounds awfully scary, but I’ll be praying! Jesus knows and He is our best and only Healer! May you all feel the Holy Spirit’s presence like never before and know that He is comforting, giving wisdom and holding you all.
May you feel His Presence surrounding you all!
praying for peace for all of you, and healing for Laurie!!
