Keep Kristie in your prayers

Kristie Wessel got her test results today. They are pleased to see that her chest is clear!

However, there is a new spot- lymph node in her stomach- that is a concern.  She will have to have a biopsy.

Please keep her in your prayers, and the entire family, as they wait, and are again facing an uncertain future. May God uphold them with his steadfast love.
