Here is an update on my dear friend, Kathy Windsor, who is bravely battling stage four cancer. We are so very grateful for your continued prayers. Kathy's message today to all of you, the faithful prayer partners:
"First, I feel the support and love. I'm reading a book that Amy (Kathy's pastor at Pasadena UMC) preached on this summer, "Liturgy of the Ordinary" by Tish Harrison Warren. In it she talks about how we are brought in church, an international organism, an institution made of every tribe, tongue and nation (Revelation 7:9) that brings us to live life together as those baptized, those in the church, those who belong to Christ and, in Christ, each other. Secondly, I am making progress with the Hoag Cancer Center dietitian on what and how to eat to overcome the side effects of my treatment. Most important, I am grateful for each day and find it beautiful."

Update on my niece’s friend Kaden: last couple days have been rough on us. fever, tremors white blood cell count things all could have been indicators of infection. Looks like infection, if at all, is low. Most of this is likely due to some withdrawals from medication he was prior on. He is currently breathing on his own with the ventilator set to CPAP mode. Looking at taking him off the ventilator completely. Sedation will be fully removed and only pain medications (which will by proxy keep him fairly sedated, just not to the point where he cannot breathe on his own). We never realized how many friends, family, and loved ones we really had and this support group for our family and most of all for Kaden couldn't be better and saying thank you never seems like enough. we love all of you and will all keep fighting.

1. Give all of us the kingdom of God and God's righteousness that you promised and make it happen.
