An Extension of Love

Dear Friends & Family,
  We are incredibly thankful for all of you and your support through prayer for Jesse and Andrea. As many of you know this has been an extremely challenging time in their lives as a newlywed couple, They were married on Thanksgiving weekend 2016, one month after Jesse was diagnosed with IgA Nephropathy (an auto immune kidney disease). The disease progressed so rapidly that he needed to start dialysis one week before Christmas. This is a six day a week, five hour a day commitment.
  Many people have approached us with the following questions, “How can we help?” or “Please let us know if there is anything we can do?”
  It is our hope and desire to sustain our children through an avalanche of love and good wishes from you our friends and family. Cards, notes, anything you can think of that would show them that we are thinking and praying for them. They currently live in Guelph and do not have any community or church support. This would be a wonderful way to show them that God’s love is ever present during this extremely devastating time in their lives.
  You can contact the office to obtain the mailing address for Jesse & Andrea


On The River Of God’s Faithfulness (Ex 2:1-10)
Lord, I have placed our children on the river of Your faithfulness.You have supplied me with the reeds of quiet confidence and trust.Together we’ve built the cradle – my weakness and Your wisdom wonderfully intertwined.I have lined it with the pitch of Your unfailing promises – You will cover them with the pinions of my prayers.I leave the blowing wind to Your direction, for you will gently steer them into the ever-widening ripples of Your perfect plan.
