On Tuesday, September 11,

we received an email informing us that Ruth's nephew had been diagnosed with an inoperable, fast growing brain tumor. He is 43 years old and has a wife and three young children. They are presently pastors at a downtown Edmonton church.(churchon99). It has been a roller coaster of emotions since we got this unexpected news. Only by the grace of God and prayer has the family survived so far. To read about Darwin for further details. We realize now how insignificant small irritations are.

Keep him in your prayers.
