I just wanted to add even though I know that Stephen has filled you in about our week.

We have been overwhelmed this past week and last night was ...........beautiful. It is incredible to know that God is with you every step on one's journey. It is something else to see His people surrounding you and your family in such a powerful way. As our family stood in the midst of the circle, it was, for me, the first time since March where I was not brought to tears as petitions were raised for our situation. It is amazing to feel such peace admist His people. There was a comfort in knowing that we are looked after, cared for, loved and definitely not alone. I know that will continue beyond whatever tomorrow brings.

"The Lord is my strength and song." for Exodus 15:2 is a verse and theme that has continuously been highlighted for me over the past months. And last night once again I was reassured of it.

Cindy, Stephen & girls,
Our thoughts & prayers have not only been with you through this entire time but have been especially with you today. I can tell that a special peace has been over you and that your community of believers which surround you have been a pillar of strength during these trying times. We pray that the Lord blessed the surgeons hands.
