more prayers needed

Please pray for the Wessel family.  Kristie had her check-up, and received bad news: the spot seems to have grown since last time.  She is being sent to a specialist on Monday to determine the next course of action.  Please keep her and the whole family in your prayers.

Please also continue to pray for Melisa Carothers during her time at the Mayo Clinic.  She is still undergoing testing.

Come unto Me, Ye Weary

By: William C. Dix

"Come unto me, ye weary, 

And I will give your rest."

O blessed voice of Jesus,

Which comes to hearts opprest!

It tells of benediction,

Of pardon, grace, and peace,

Of joy that has no ending, 

Of love that cannot cease.

"Come unto me, ye fainting,

And I will give you life."

O cheering voice of Jesus,

Which comes to aid our strife!

The foe is stern and eager, 

The fight is fierce and long;

But thou hast made us mighty 

And stronger than the strong.

Hymn # 345 from Lutheran Worship, verses 1 and 3
