Ulcer is improving


Mike needed another dilation because his food was starting to get stuck some. His last one was on August 13th. He had it done at Hugeley on Tuesday, Nov. 3rd and Dr. Bismar was really pleased to find that the ulcer is improving. He was also glad to find that Mike has gained several pounds. He dilated his esophagus from a 15 to an 18. He said keep doing what we're doing and we'll see what M.D. Anderson says at the end of December when we go back for all the tests.

The requests we asked of all our prayer team.... the Lord is answering....and we are seeing it.
Mike was hungry all the way home. We were so thrilled and thankful for answered prayer that we wanted to celebrate. We went down to the limestone creek for a picnic and Bible study when we got back to the ranch. The weather was great, the sunset was beautiful, the worship was priceless! " O Magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt His name together." Psalm 34:3


Thank you again to all of you faithful prayer partners.
Our love and gratitude,
Jan and Mike

Mike and Jan,

I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart” Psalm 9:1

Praise should always follow answered prayer, just like the mist of earth’s gratitude rises when the sun of heaven’s love warms the ground. The Lord been gracious, and heard our voices as we earnestly prayed. We will praise Him as long as we live! And sing to Him who has answered our prayers and given us the desires of our hearts.

It was so good to see you at the class reunion!
God bless you and keep you in HIS loving arms.
