importance of prayer

Life here has been very up and down crazy as of late.

Went over the mts for Labor Day weekend. for 2nd cousins wedding, see a new 2 day old baby, attend a sing, visit family (uncle died a few weeks ago so spent some time with my fav aunt) and nap while Jo held the babe.

last week was a blurr... W stress at prayer meeting... F Gloria took Micah, Ian, Josiah, and Avery from 10am on then had us over for dinner. What a blessed day of relaxing and enjoying Levi! (Got my first smile justfor me. He had smiled at Roy several times over the holiday weekend but not for me.)

This weekend was dramatic... the short of it is yesterday was our last Sunday to meet in the hall building. We (4 couples and 11 kkids) will gather as christians in homes. Bryon&Joni and Marilyn will continue in the building. This was a decision a long time coming. The recognized elders finally made the move away from the building bryon will not submitt to them and Marilyn is "committed to Bryon and Joni". Pray as this is not good. The elders are possibly going to Arlington and Marysville to infoorm elders there of what has been going on here. I have had a constant headach since Sat am when Action started taking place instead of all talk. God is so good and his word trumps any tradition man put in place.

Marlyn either has lymphoma or a bad infection. Waiting for more test results. all other medical issues have been put on hold till tests return. She and I thank you all for the prayers. Yesterday she said that this has brought her and Rob closer together!

I finally posted reunion pics on FB! Now to get the ones from Ficek grandparents visit.
