Chemo Has Started

Dr. Thomas started chemo on Monday, and he is doing very well. Thank you for praying! He is doing a three-hour drip of chemo which he will do one time every three weeks for the next three months. In addition to this, he also takes chemo pills every day – 5 in the morning and 5 at night. After chemo is done, he will be scheduled for radiation. He came and led our staff meeting on Tuesday (we were so glad to see him back in the saddle!) and we are trusting God to continue doing incredible things in his life for His glory alone. Please continue to pray that the normal side effects of chemo would have no effect at all as Pastor recovers. And continue to pray for those in our church family who are struggling with the same cancer issues. God is the Great Physician and He is able!

Also, we are looking forward to welcoming Pastor back into the pulpit this Sunday, February 17. He has been cleared by the doctor to come back so we are thrilled that he will be leading us on Sunday.

Many of you have asked about Pastor’s parents. They are doing much better. His dad is in a “collar” so please continue to pray for his recovery.

Dr. Keith,
I wanted to let you know that we as a family are praying for you and miss being part of your physical congregation. No matter where God may lead me, in this world, I will always consider you as my Pastor. We are currently living in Laredo, Tx . Every once in a while I will listen to one of your recorded messages just to feel "at home"
In Christ,
E.V. Ric Brynteson
