One of the saddest consequences of my brain cancer is being so sick and shut in that I can not go to church. I miss worshiping God. I miss serving Him with the talents He gave me. I miss singing praises and old hymns with the congregation and the choir. I miss our church family, and meeting the new souls that have trusted Christ for their salvation. Our church has always been such a wonderful place to serve God, and see miraculous changes in others.
I must confess, I do not understand why many will miss church on purpose. Many ask me about my faith, or my positive attitude during this time. I remind them I have the Lord, great Christian mentors and almost 50 years of going to church. I need more! Do you need more church? I believe we can never get enough. I have been feeling better and hope to go to church this Sunday. We have our annual revival services coming up soon. I want to go each night! I look forward to more singing, more preaching and the possibility of souls getting right with God. I don’t want to miss anything. The special music; hopefully it includes my favorites from Pastor Joe! I want to meet the visitors, and the new members. I want to see the spring decorations that celebrate “He is Risen! Please pray that I will be able to celebrate the Lords Resurrection in church! Will you be in your place?
Because of His Grace

Psalms 122:1
(A Song of degrees of David.) I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the LORD.
Psalms 84:10
For a day in thy courts is better than a thousand. I had rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of wickedness
Just wanted you to know that my class at Wilton Baptist Academy is praying for you!
Getting ready for church now.I like the old music rather than the modern band music in some churches today. The cancer makes a body weak,but keep in mind the lord never gives us more than he knows we can bear.with others prayers I hope the lord will give you a blessing today f much strength.
I am praying you will be singing and praising our Lord and Savior at church on Easter Sunday! God is good and so very faithful!
I look forward to reading your thoughts. They should find their way into a book someday.. You are such an inspiration to me, I love you in the Lord. Your family has always been special to me. God Bless you always.
I love you
