COMMUNITY LIFE & PRAYER | May 14 Week (and probably part of May 21 week as well!)






Hello friends!

On Sunday we had some exciting announcements! Scott and Kate are now husband and wife! Monica is going to be induced Friday May 18! Jen-Mai has a new 7 pound 12 oz nephew Jakob Alexander Peterson as of May 10 (the top picture)!! And Jay and Michelle had their daughter Rylie Noelle McIntyre also May 10, (middle pictures)!!! Super exciting! Plus, here is a picture of Trev and Gwyneth's Annie for those of you not with us when we showed her off! (bottom picture).

This last Sunday night and throughout the week we also had the opportunity to pray for one another about many things... Nick's mom going to England to care for her sister just out of surgery but missing her chemo because of it, all the new mom's and mom's to be in our community, Les' colleagues' husband who received the lungs he needed for surgery, Conrad's struggle with his job and being in a "valley" time in life... I forgot to take notes, so if there were some that I have forgotten, please post them! Also, we as a community have been invited by zoecarnate.com to be part of praying and working against present day slavery throughout the globe, which is a huge issue of justice to which the Church should be responding. For specific information, please check out http://www.mychurch.org/notforsalecampaign

In new and sad news, Marion Goertz's father passed away this week. Please continue to pray for Marion and Donald Goertz as they have now lost two parents in a months time.

Please post comments throughout the week to let us know how you're doing, if there are places we can pray in thanksgiving or requests!

Christ be with you!

Hello friends, Mon and I are heading to the hospital tomorrow (Friday) for Mon to be induced. If you could pray that everything goes well, that the doctors have wisdom, and that the baby is healthy, that would be awesome! Thanks.

Hello again.
Well, exciting news, Chloe Leigh-Anne Kay was born 10 pounds 13 ozs on May 20 at 4:08am! Unfortunately, it's now Wednesday May 23 and both Mon and baby are still in the hospital. Mon is recovering from C-section, possibly released tonigth, but Chloe, having undergone a few problems now has jaundice which is apparently getting worse not better. As funny as this sounds, please pray that she can poop 'cause it'll just keep getting worse until she does.
Thanks!
