THANK YOU

IN MEMORIAM

Dear Phyllis and members of the Prayer Ministry, What a delightful surprise to receive your notes indicating you prayed for me. Thank you so much. I am so appreciative! I just wanted to let you know that my doctor believes he got all the cancer, so no chemo or radiation! Now we carefully watch it and have a PET scan in a few months! I so sppreciate your thoughtfulness. Please continue to keep me in your prayers! Prayer is so powerful! God bless you all. Sincerely, Anne Edison
