    You may have noticed that our Jed has not been on much since Christmas.

    About a year ago, he was diagnosed with cancer, and has undergone a series of chemo treatments over the year.

    Sadly, despite the treatments, Jed has not improved, and entered hospice care about a month ago.

    I had news from his wife last Friday that he is not in pain, and is resting comfortably. He is at peace, as he has indicated repeatedly to us since he was diagnosed, and is ready to go Home to be with the Lord.

    We wanted to let the membership know, so that those who wish to may pray for him and his family in his last days or weeks.

    We will keep you updated as we learn more.

    Scripture before Tradition:
    but that won't prevent others from
    taking it upon themselves to deprive you
    of the right to call yourself Christian.

          What TW said.
          The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                  I'm so sorry to hear that. Will be praying.
                  "If you believe, take the first step, it leads to Jesus Christ. If you don't believe, take the first step all the same, for you are bidden to take it. No one wants to know about your faith or unbelief, your orders are to perform the act of obedience on the spot. Then you will find yourself in the situation where faith becomes possible and where faith exists in the true sense of the word." - Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship

                    I've had this email from Mrs. Jed, today. I had mailed a card a couple of weeks ago with staff names on it.
                    Jed is still in the hospital. He is not in pain and sleeps a lot. When awake he is confused and putting words to his thoughts is difficult and frustrating for him and us. All of the hospice staff are amazed that he is doing as well as he is. Your card came in the mail and he remembered each of you when I read it to him. He is at peace waiting on the Lord's timing. Thank you for your prayers.

                        A couple of weeks ago he passed into the Lord's presence.

                            No, like Billy Graham said, "he just changed addresses".
