In reply to Ginny, still computor challenged?. Ginny, I love when you comment here. I got tears in my eyes as I realized again what God has done for you and Peter. You two are such testimonies to the love and faithfulness of God. And I believe the ripples of your lives are going on and on as well. Love you, dear Gin. xoxoxo

Dearest Jewel,
How bittersweet to see my almost 9 yr. old request asking you and Mickey to pray for Peter’s surgery! The doctor is still today scratching his head why those beat up babies are still functioning as well as they are!!! Thank you!
Billy Graham has a special place in our life also. Many years ago, ‘82 or ‘83, at a very bottom of the barrel time for us, Peter chose to watch a Billy Graham Crusade over an IndyCar Race….seeing how we only got two channels, the pickings were slim! For him to choose the Crusade was a miracle! He chose to begin the Race of a lifetime over a car race! But I believe it was because someone(s) had been praying. One women, in particular, who later became a dear friend, brought her mother to a small, neighborhood cafe in Superior, that forgot ambiance could be part of the dining experience, for their Friday night fish fry every Friday night. We “just happened” to eat there every Friday night also, before we went to work at the bar. She shared with me later that she had discerned such a darkness and sadness hovering over us like fog. How right she was! We were a couple shredded by drugs, alcohol and adultry….just a few bitter words away from divorce…. and she began to pray for us….
I am not sure how much time passed, but one Sunday, this most unlikely to darken the doorway of a church couple, walked into HER church and I was radically to the bone saved and delivered and redeemed by the Blood of Jesus Christ! Peter had prayed with Billy Graham that Sunday afternoon many months before, God hand picked a woman to pray for us and hell lost this couple!
So Billy Graham and prayer for the lost…yes…that’s why I am crying right now as I type this…. He may be with the Lord now, but the ripples go on!

Beautiful memory. Asking for prayers for an e-friend who is alone without caring family and friends in Illinois. She has been a shutin for many years. Her name is Susan. Thank you.

May I request that you and Mickey remember Peter on the 23rd when he goes in for his kidney surgery? I treasure knowing that I can ask you two…

I needed a reminder about the power of prayer. Thank you for this beautiful narrative and for your willingness to pray for others. There have been many times you have prayed for me and my family and I’m very grateful.
