A bit of news...As some of you know, I have been experiencing back pain for about 8 months, which has grown increasingly worse over the past weeks. All along it was treated as a disk protrusion and arthritis. It turns out the pain was from neither. Last Tuesday I had a CT scan, which revealed a tumor behind my rectum that is pressing against my spine, causing the pain that I have been having.

This obviously came as a shock, even more so in light of the events of our lives over the past two years. But we are filled with confidence, and a peace that has overwhelmed us. I have had one biopsy already, with another to follow this Wednesday. I will most likely begin treatment within the next 10 days.

So, we would welcome your prayers. Our hope lies in the belief that the Kingdom has come, and with it access to the healing of our bodies. We hope you will join us in this fight.
