Update: Prayer Requests

The surgery went well, and he is back at home resting. The doctors determined it was just the hernia, that his pancreas is functioning normally. Thanks to any and all that had a chance to read this and lifted him up.

No word from UT yet.

Hi family,

April and I have been missing you all terribly. I/we agree that we felt closer to everyone when we were together last.

I have two prayer requests to add to the list.

1) My father has begun having trouble with his pancreas again. He was admitted to Abilene Regional (used to be Humana) last night. In addition to the pancreas, they found a hernia and are going to operate tomorrow morning at 7:30 a.m. to correct it. Please pray for quick recovery tomorrow and that the pancreas will settle back to normal.

2) I have applied for a job with UT System in Midland, which mostly involves auditing but involves contract analysis and some other boring details I won't go further into right now. It is very similar to some of the work I am doing now, and I am very positive about the possibility of being hired. I learned while in Midland that the hiring manager is a GCR member. Please pray for this opportunity, that it might come to be, if it meets with God's timing.

April and I have always considered and planned on moving to Midland at some point; we became more certain that now could be a good time about 5-6 weeks ago, and the pull continues to grow stronger. We would love for this to come about and to be able to spend a lot more time with family. If not now, then hopefully it will be sooner rather than later. We look forward to seeing everyone again soon.

God's peace and blessing be on you all!
