Update on Margaret Stroup 12-27-2008

It is late evening here in Alaska. I spoke with Jerry late this evening and he shared they did a CT scan late this afternoon and the doctors came by this evening and gave him a report. They found some air pockets in the cavity of her lungs. They aren’t sure how they got there and not sure what procedure they will use to correct the problem. They also found some fluid spots around her lungs as well. They are going to consult with other Radiologist tomorrow morning and I will give a clearer update on the status site tomorrow.

Margaret also asked Jerry not to leave her tonight. He will be staying the night with her for sure. I will let him sleep some in the morning and will call him in the early afternoon. So don’t look for the update tomorrow too early.

By the time most of you read this it will be Sunday. I trust you went to church today. Remember this is the last Sunday you will ever be able to attend church in 2008, It’s over!!!!!!! I also want to encourage you to read you Bible every day. If you don’t have a plan I would encourage you to get one. We use the Daily Bread. You can get one at the Soldotna Church of God or call or email me and I will mail you one. They also have a web site. I think the address is dailybread.org but you can Google them and find the online version. It has a daily Bible reading guide plus some great thoughts each day. You can also watch my Sunday Sermon online at www.ahopeforthefuture.org. Check it out!

See ya soon,

Pastor Alan

    Those up and down days are hard to take. We have to hang in there as things will improve. However, it takes the 3 steps forward and then 2 back. In 6 months this will be a blurr, but we will know we have been through a tornado and weathered the storm. When I look back at the time I was in the tornado I thank God that Margaret and Jerry have God. My time would have been so much better had I been in that place.

    However, as you have said many times — Good comes out of every bad situation. I started looking for God and He said HERE I Am! Margaret and Jerry will be that great testimony that will be spoken to the other generations of new believers.

    Glad your here, JR
