Dear Jack and family. Your family is in our hearts and prayers. I think constantly of Marg. I dont know her much but what I do know is that you have a very loving and beautiful family. I pray that God will restore her health again. I really felt that the congregation yesterday also felt the real presence and shock of this situation and when prayed for in church, not once but twice with great depth and mentioned in the sermon I could sense a silence in all. We know all things are in Gods care and pray for your continued strength in this very difficult time. With all my tears and prayers, Paula Kahles

Dear Jack and Family

May God give you the strength you need every day. We all continue to pray for Marg's full recovery.

P.S. The church was pretty dark yesterday. Ben realized before the last songs that Jack wasn't there so the lights were still off. Aren't we a pathetic bunch.LOL

Love from Ben and Henrietta

We want you to know that our thoughts and prayers are with you as you go through this trying time. Always know that God's almighty hand is in control and that Margaret is in His loving care. We can also see, that even during times when we don't want to smile, God sends us a smile! Congratulations on the birth of baby Jakin, may he be a blessing to your family! We pray that God is your strength! Love from Brendan & Michelle Bergsma

We are keeping you in our prayers and hope in God for Marg's health to be restored. May the Lord grant us grace to learn that while his ways may not be our ways and his thoughts may not be our thoughts, yet they are the wisest of all ways and are full of mercy for all those who love God and are called according to his purpose.
