PRAYER REQUEST

This morning I received this request from June Harris Koch (BHS '56):

"PEGGY (VIRDEN) and Bobby SHARP's 32-year-old granddaughter from College Station, age 32 -- who is scheduled to be married for the first time shortly -- recently developed fluid on her brain. She is scheduled for surgery today to put in a shunt to drain off the fluid. Please pray for God's hand to guide this procedure, and for the healing of this condition. PEGGY is a sister in Christ from Bethel Community Church."

And while we are in a prayer mode, please pray that the course of Hurricane Irene changes, and misses the eastern seaboard.

The Prayer of Protection:

"The light of God surrounds you. The love of God enfolds you. The power of God protects you. The presence of God watches over you. Wherever you are, God is. And all is well."  Amen

Peace and love,

Marilyn

MORE "GREATS"

Scotlyn Kathleen and big sister Londyn

I cannot believe I forgot about JUNE (HASH) CURRY'S newest great-grandchild. I remember when this cutie was born in June and I saw precious photos of her.  Scotlyn Kathleen is the daughter of JUNE'S granddaughter, Karen and her husband, Erik. She was born this past June. 

I guess the race is on to see who has the most "great-grandchildren".  Let's see... that's seven for JUNE, three for PEG, and I'm not certain how many for JERLENE (PIEL) STEEL. NANCY (THOMPSON) BAKER has three (I think).

I think our class took to heart the directive to "go forth, be fruitful, and multiply"!

More peace and love this Sunday in August,

Marilyn

GOOD STUFF!!

Miss Stella

I received this in an email from Peg (Branham) Krumlinde:

"This is our new great-grandbaby - Adam, Guenter's grandson and his wife, Sarah (proud parents). I wish I had one! (Only for a couple of hours, though, LOL). That makes three 'greats' for us!"

Isn't it wonderful to see our legacies while we are still young enough to enjoy them for the precious gifts they are? Miss Stella is a real beauty, Peg!

It's nice to send this kind of news out. Want to share more? Who has the most great-grandchildren in our Class of '57?

Peace and love,

Marilyn
