Meals for McCrea Family

Amy Nelson is generously continuing to be the point person to coordinate meals for the McCreas. Many of you are already on Amy's list, but if there is any other people who would like to sign up to bring a meal to Val and her family call or email Amy. The best time to bring a meal is between 5-6pm.

Special thanks to Amy!

When I think of you who bring wonderful meals for Val I can't help but think of Romans 12:4-6

For as we have many members in one body, but all of the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another. Having gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them.....Thank you for being the "hands" to prepare meals. Among the other outpourings of love you are meeting a need that is part of the "body" of needs that Val has as she struggles with this cancer.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts and have a wonderful Easter celebrating our risen LORD.

Julie

Life is a Journey

Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey:
From childhood to maturity
and youth to age;
From innocence to awareness
and ignorance to knowing;
From foolishness to desecration
and then perhaps to wisdom.
From weakness to strength or
from strength to weakness
and often back again;
From health to sickness
and we pray to health again.
From offense to forgiveness
from loneliness to love
from joy to gratitude
from pain to compassion
from grief to understanding
from fear to faith.
From defeat to defeat to defeat
until looking backwards or ahead
We see that victory lies not
at some high point along the way
but in having made the journey
step by step
a sacred pilgrimage.
Birth is a beginning
and death a destination
And life is a journey;
A sacred journey to life everlasting

Hi Julie, It's Kristi Rider. I'm thinking of your family always and feel so connected to you all in your journey. Devon and Dave Jero and their kids are coming to stay with us for the weekend. She has a strong heart for you. Here's my cell # 760.644.7886 and my home number 760.712.3314 in case you want to connect with Devon while she's here. Make sure that you take a break here and there. It can be overwhelming. Please tell Val hi from us and that we love her and Chris. Kristi

Julie,

There are so many wonderful friends to help you with meals for Val and Chris.

You have been such a wonderful sister to Val. It is warming her heart to know that you have been making such a huge effort to see her by driving down there so often. I know that you have responsibliites at home and that it is so hard to juggle your time. It is so kind of you to give of yourself to her at this time.

You are truly an inspiration.

Love,

Marianne
