Prayer request

Bad/sad news is never easy to share, but I'm going to, in hopes that you'll start praying!! Yesterday we received news that AW's dad has a brain tumor. Allen and Janelle are on their way to the States to seek the best possible treatment for this very unexpected and shocking news! The doctor in South Africa diagnosed him yesterday, right before they were supposed to leave for a several week long trip to Zambia and Zimbabwe. They should be here within a day or so. Would you please pray!! Pray that the doctors can spot the problem area and quickly and efficiently resolve it!! We should know more soon and we'll post more when we know more! Right now we just know that God is in control and he isn't surprised by any of this!! We know the Great Physician can heal Allen! Thanks so much for praying for our family!!

You're in my prayers! Remember my mom has had 2 tumors, so if you need to talk, I'd be happy to listen.
