Please pray.

We have had a busy few weeks and there is so much I need to blog about but there is something that is far more important to share. Last week we found out that my grandfather (my mom's dad) has a malignant mass in his esophagus. Today he will get the results of a PET scan which will determine if it has spread to other organs in his body or lymph nodes. Please pray that the cancer has not spread. He has been in ministry for 60 years and even though he is turning 80 this week he still drives across Texas to preach every week at churches that do not have a pastor. He has 6 children, 30 grandchildren, and 17 (I think) great grandchildren. If you get a chance, please pray for Dr. James Semple and family.

Pictures of us hearing him preach in Plano before we moved to OK. This was the last time we heard him preach in person...very special.
