Prayer for the Morales family

Jesse is now healed and walking, talking, smiling, and maybe even dancing with his Savior! He battled ALS for over 18 months and was called Home on Monday. You may recall reading about him and his family when I posted in June about the ALS Run/Walk that I was taking part in. Thank you for your prayers during Jesse's illness.
I've already posted about Jesse, so I won't say much more about him. I will say that it was wonderful to see how God used Jesse's illness to bring people to faith in Christ! I can't wait to see what God will do even in his death!

Pray for his wife, Kathy, a wonderful woman of God. We share a love for our Lord and children. We co-taught grades 1-6 in Sunday School in the spring and do great at bouncing off each other! I look forward to more teaching together. Pray for daughters Angela (Jordan and their young children Ethan and Mia), Christina (Frankie), Stephanie (Mike), and 14 year old Emily. They are all wonderful young women and men of faith. It's a joy to be in the same church with most of them. I have watched the girls lead us in worship on many Sundays, yet knowing they were having difficult days. I am so encouraged by their walk of faith.

Here are a few pictures from the ALS Walk/Run:





Visitation for Jesse is on Saturday, with the 'celebration service' on Monday. If you can, say extra prayers these days!

Also, please keep friends and church families in your prayers. Jesse and Kathy started a Filipino church, The Bridge, and then The Pathway Church( formerly Symons Valley), in Calgary. He is an alumni of our seminary, so their family has been a part of our convention work for many years.

On behalf of the family and friends, THANK YOU!
