Terri and I went to see our Pastor, Kevin Odor, for a spiritual recharge today. Kevin is the Pastor that married Uncle Keith and Aunt Gabrielle and we respect him very much. He talked to us about faith, anger, sorrow, and why things happen. At the end of our meeting he anointed Matthew with oil and we all prayed for him to make it through next week safely.

A very good friend of Terri's sent this in an email that I just opened today. It is a valuable chart of God's promises that I will carry in my wallet from now on.

This is great Kim. Thanks for sharing.
This is a wonderful picture and I'm sure the Pastor gave them great comfort. Matthew looks perfectly relaxed in his arms.
