The Struggle Has Ended

Greg Hewlett passed away on January 17th after nearly eight years of battling colon cancer. While we grieve his loss, we are comforted to know that he is with his Lord.

No Labor Day Rest

This morning Greg was admitted to the emergency room at St. Paul with severe abdominal pain. What was initially feared to be an intestinal blockage now is thought to be side effects of the chemotherapy. We hope he will be home either later today or tomorrow; for the moment, chemo has been suspended (though it may resume in a few days after consultation with the doctors).

Please continue to pray for both Greg and Christine in their suffering. Pray for the family and the church as we seek to be the body of Christ, a real physical presence and comfort, to them both. And pray for daily wisdom in deciphering the myriad symptoms of unknown origin that can so easily cause panic.

Four of the Jonssons are praying for a speedy recovery so that chemotherapy can continue to do its job.
