Some updates...

We just received word via Julie White a good report on Neal Estey:
I just got a call from Neal with his latest scan results. As many of you may know, he had a scan done this past Saturday and received the results today. The doctor said that the results are "unbelievably good." Apparently all of the tumors have shrunk to half of their original size and some of the smaller ones have shrunk to less than half their original size. The doctor also said that he was quite surprised because it is very rare to see results like this. :)

And Everett Pleyer continues to recover in the CCU at Jordan Hospital. In addition to watching over Everett, Tim & Ardie are in the midst of making preparations and decisions for day care for Arlene (for those who don't know, Everett has been his wife, Arlene's main care taker as she continues into Alzheimer's Disease). Please continue in prayer for all four of them.

...and may we be the answers to our own prayers.

Also, I referenced a commercial yesterday before we received communion together that I said I'd send out to you that I thought was pretty appropriate for our time together at the table. While the implications of the shoe commercial are implied for a sports team, it's the whole idea for the church as well. Here it is (you may need to visit the North St. News page to actually see it):
