Prayer Request = Kadie Bumpas

Kadie Bumpas was diagnosed with an Ependymoma brain tumor 5 years ago. This week Kadie has been completing her yearly check up. The results of Kadie's MRI came back and everything was good. She was even told out off 88 kids that was at St Jude this week, with this type of brain tumor she was doing the best. The Drs. truly think Kadie is a miracle child. Kadie now will have to go once a year until she is 18. In the years past she has been going every 3 months. She is not completely out of the woods but the chance of the tumor coming back is WAY down. Kadie is still dealing with anxiety issues and some learning problems but over all she is doing great. Kadie's healing has come by the prayers of family and friends and by the Grace of God. Please keep this family and child in prayer.

Thank you so much!

Just wanted to let eveyone know that Kadie's MRI results came back and everything is GOOD. There were 88 kids in the RT-1 protocol with Ependymoma brain tumors and out of all of them the Dr. said Kadie was doing the best. Most of them the tumor either came back or they have some sort of severe disability. The Drs. said she is truly a miracle child. Thank you all so much for praying for her. She will now be able to go once a year until she is 18. She is not completely out of the woods but the chance of the tumor coming back is WAY down. She still has some Anxiety issues and learning problems that we have to deal with but over all she is good. Going to St. Jude and seeing all of those children there that are so sick makes you realize how blessed you really are. It just makes you want to do anything to help them. I just wanted to tell everyone Thanks and tell them how much Kadie and I really appreciate all the prayers.
Love, Jill and Kadie

Andrew, I have a prayer request,

We have a good friend of ours and a member of the HHS band, (Katie Combs) her grandmother is going into surgery Tomorrow Monday March 24 her name is Judith Combs there not sure what is wrong with her she has been having sever head aches and lose of balance, she has been hospitalize with this problem last year and the thought she had a stoke at that time but that has been ruled out so they are going in to explore. Katie is having a real hard time dealing with this because she thinks she should be doing something and there is nothing for her to do, she is in the 8th grade. all your prayer will be appreciated.

Also I will be going out of town tomorrow for a week pray for Roy, he will have to deal with the kids by him self.

Thanks for everything you do

Andrew, Tim and I will be in Richmond this week-end visiting his son and my daughter. I do have a prayer request for a couple who are friends of Angie and Todd's. Their names are Tracey and Tyson Pardee and they have a 4-month old little boy that has been diagnosed with glaucoma. He has had one surgery already and will be having another one soon. As you know this is an incurable disease at the time and eventually a patient loses their sight completely. The baby's name is Sullivan.

Thank you so much, Marlene

SelfStudy - Easter Weekend

Hey Team:


I am REALLY excited about our Sunday School class this week. We are going to take a break from our study of David and do something a little different for Easter. You won't want to miss it!


As we prepare for the remembrance of the events leading up to His crucifixion, and the celebration of His resurrection, consider these thoughts from Chuck Swindoll:

"The benefits of the resurrection are innumerable. To list a few: Our illnesses don't seem nearly so final; Our fears fade and lose their grip; Our grief over those who have gone on is diminished; Our desire to press on in spite of the obstacles is rejuvenated; Our identity as Christians is strengthened as we stand in the lengthening shadows of saints down through the centuries, who have always answered back in an antiphonal voice: 'He is risen, indeed!'"

Hope to see you Sunday, this Easter Sunday, if not before!

Press on.
Andrew

Mike Taylor is going to the doctor in Nashville today to find out if they will have to do surgery on his broken foot. Please remember Mike, Cheri, & family in your prayers.

Also, Jim Adkins had an MRI yesterday on his knee, he hurt it on the youth ski trip, he will find out the results next week. This is kinda tough for Jim with soccer season starting up. Please remember Jim in your prayers as well.

Thanks, Mike Stewart
