No words can describe the joy that I had going home to our church family on Sunday with new lungs! Though I still had to wear a mask, it was great to walk in without my heavy oxygen tank hanging from my shoulder. We were joyfully greeted by many friends and many people we didn't know but knew us and had been praying for us. When we quietly (we were of course late, that hasn't changed with new lungs) walked into our Sunday school class our friend and SS teacher stopped the class and thanked God for His healing and bringing us back. I can't begin to tell you what wonderful support our church family has been for us during this time. Everything from watering our plants, getting mail, cleaning the house (getting it ready to sale), bringing meals, graciously giving financially, and much more I'm sure that I'm not even aware of. So we just want to say THANK YOU again for everything! We love you and want you to know you have been an inspiration to us and a testament of the body of Christ in serving one another. It was great to be back for the day and we hope that it will be soon that we will be going home.

Hey Emily! It was great to see you at church this week! I just wanted to update you on the baby... he has STILL not picked a birthday yet, so we are just sitting around waiting... We did have u/s yesterday and NST and everything looks good, so we are going to hold out a week and see if he can make his own way out! He is measuring 7lbs 9 oz. and a 'very happy baby inside' says my doctor. We will keep you updated! Hope you are feeling well and your family is in our prayers daily! Love, Hannah
Emily,
I'm so thrilled to hear you were at church on Sunday. We have been out of town a lot lately and sure missed seeing you. Hopefully we'll see you this week. We love you and cannot wait to see you. You are in our continued prayers.
Love,
Kelly, Jim, and Parker
