Even in hard times, though, some good is coming or is in process. I've been able to support and love on those kids and their family. I hope and pray for the strength needed to minister to them through the holiday and the upcoming year which I know will be difficult for them. Hopefully they will be encouraged with my company and prayers.

Life has some saddenings....
Two of the kids in my youth group lost their dad on Saturday. I knew him personally. He was a funny man with a strong personality. He'd respond to the pastor in the middle of the sermon sometimes with a great one-liner and the whole congregation would erupt in laughter. I will miss him.

Jean!! I did not know you had a blog and then a came saw your name on Erin's comment and had to find out if that was the Jean I know and love!
I am so sad to hear of that loss. How devestating for their family. I too am glad you can be a support system for this family. As too will the church I am sure.
Hello Jean! I also noticed your comment on Erin's blog and am happy to see you have a blog! Yay!
Glad that you are there for that precious family who lost their dad and husband.
Thanks, ladies. It's not been an easy weekend, by any means. I hope that it gets better for them as quickly as possible. I know that it won't be easy by any means.
