We covet your prayers

Please pray for Ryan's Grandpa Hains. He has surgery tomorrow at 2:30 to figure out what is causing all of his problems these past two weeks. He is 88 and weaker than usual, so many prayers are needed. Please pray specifically that whatever is blocking his bile duct is benign and easily fixed with a stint.

Also, please pray for Ryan's uncle Odee (Arend Lenderink) He was just diagnosed with Leukemia on Friday and started chemo on Saturday. Please specifically pray that he is pain-free as he has been in severe pain for weeks and pray that the chemo works to fight his cancer.

And please pray for Sadie as she is still sick with a fever.

We all know from experience that God is good and He does deliver through prayer. Thank you!

Definitely praying for everyone - seems like a lot right now. I am glad that we will be home tomorrow, and we'll have to get an update on Grandpa Hains. I hope Sadie's fever gets better too. braelyn and Selah have both had fevers off and on for a few days and no appetite - never threw up though. Ugh - it freakin almost June - when are these sick bugs gonna leave this state??? I feel like it has been an overwhelmingly sick winter/spring!

You are all in our prayers. You are right, He does deliver. We will pray hard and often. I am so sorry to be so late. I don't know why this didn't show up last night. Give Sadie a hug from Lovie, she keeps asking about her.
