Peace for 2012

St. Francis of Assisi left us all with a "jewell" that I treasure. I hope you and many world leaders will embrace this message in 2012.

Lord, Make me an instrument of Your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

New Year...More Work to Do!

God is Good! It’s the New Year and our prayers have helped to ease the pain or anxiety of several of our brothers and sisters in Christ.
In December we had several “family” members and friends go through some trials. We know from scripture that He will never allow us to have more than we can handle…so with prayer many have overcome obstacles recently.

Billie Davis underwent surgery and it was successful in giving her needed pain relief. She looks good, is now at home, and improving daily.

Jack Zerkel’s new hip is getting used to him…or the other way around. It was good to see him back at church.

Don Kottlowski went to be with the Lord and he will know no more pain or have any more confusion.

Alice Cooper is now in a rehab center after a scary heart attack and bout of pneumonia. Her family fought along side of her every step of the way. Our prayers for her restored health seem to be a part of God’s master plan.

My hand is healing from surgery…(even if it is taking me longer than normal to type this!!!)

I heard that Dwayne Wilson was just taken to Hancock Regional Hospital with pneumonia last weekso our work goes on! Dwayne is now home resting.

Susan VanRooy’s brother Bryan is in critical care in Cincinnati after an accident at work. A tree fell on him crushing many bones.

Please know that God hears all our prayers and that all things work for good for those who love the Lord! Pray …pray…pray!
Best wishes for a happy and healthy new year!

HIS,

Roger
