Karen made up a song years ago for the kid's that we sing on the Lord's Day. That isn't unusual for her, it seems that every activity in our family has some little song to go with it. Funny now that I think about it that though she was a musician she never thought herself much of a song writer and yet her little ditties are attached to almost every item in our house and activity we do together.

You can't hear the tune right now but the word's are short and sweet ...

"Happy Lord's Day, Let's prepare our hearts to go to church and worship the almighty God."

I hope that you all have a sense of awe and thankfulness this morning as you enter corporately into the throne room of God and meet him in worship this morning.

She asked again in her stupor that I make sure you all go to church this morning. It's always been very important to her that His people not neglect the worship of their God. After all, those who share the bonds of Christ share the same gracious bonds that she wears. When you worship this morning you are worshipping with her. Sing loudly.


Please pray that I know what to say to her when the time comes and that I know what to say to the children.

I love you all.

We will continue to hold Karen in our prayers and will also be praying for you, Dave, and for the kids. We will be singing our praises extra loud this morning so Karen can hear them! Love to you all~ Chris and Caroline

Still praying. And Smidge and I will be on our way to see you all this afternoon. What can we bring to you? We'll at least bring smiles and prayers :)

David,
You, Karen, and the kids have been in our prayers constantly since we found out yesterday and, after worship today, our whole congregation is praying for you now. We wish we could be there right now...love from Idaho ~ Stefanie, Bryan, Donna, and B.J.

I am very glad the tumor is a manageable one though I know the road will be long and hard. I am wondering how Karen is doing and if she is feeling up to visitors at all. I would love to see her, or talk to her on the phone but do not want to disturb her rest and recovery either.
