for the family as Sue seeks restored health.
Rick
VanderPloeg
underwent successful knee surgery this past Tuesday. We give thanks that Rick is home
recuperating. Pray that Rick will not
experience more pain in his knee and that his knee will grow sound and strong.
Marlin
Vis
has had pain in his back and leg thought to be caused by stenosis. We prayed at church last Sunday night for
Marlin’s doctor visit. Marlin is happy
to report this week that maybe 50% of the pain was alleviated with a shot. This is a short term answer to prayer. Let us pray that an MRI will help doctors to
get at the root of Marlin’s pain.
