Anyone want to praise God with me??? (by Natalie)
Today is one of those monumental days. Believe it or not, Aaron’s stem cell transplant was 6 months ago today(on April 11th). To that I must say, “Praise God!”
Then they cried out to the LORD in their trouble, and He brought them out of their distress. He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed. They were glad when it grew calm, and He guided them to their desired haven. Oh, that men would praise the LORD for His goodness and for His wonderful works to the children of men! Psalm 107:28-31

Sounds wonderful.. 6 months is a short time for some and a very long time for others…
I know the challenges you face seem endless.. but take relief in th efact that others are pulling for you at all times.
Melanie has foot surgery 10/23/07… I keep kidding her that she will be a foot model after the surgery.. Melanie recently entered an art show and won a #200.00 prize!!!!
Christine is having a tough time with her pregnancy.. They have named their son to be “Christian”. We are going (Georgia) to see our other two grandkids for 10 days in November and then Christine will deliver late December or Jan 08. I’m guessing December 07.
Jeff is experiencing difficulty with his work .. loan business is going down and he has not worked in three weeks.
We miss our friends inOjai but think of you often..
Best wishes
Walt & Melanie Phillips

Most assuredly! When I read of Aaron getting to attend church, I could hear the Hallelujah Chorus and was covered in goose bumps. 6 months is wonderful. Your folks are a testimony of trusting God and leaning not unto your own understanding. We rejoice with you!

I too got goose bumps when I read about Aaron being able to attend church. And got them again just thinking about it. God is so good. I can’t imagine the strength & courage this journey has taken, but you guys are definitely a testimony of incredible faith in God. Thank you for the example that you are.

We are rejoicing with you and are in awe of what the Lord has brought you through. He is amazing. We will continue to pray from afar.
In His Love,
