A Note from the Spanglers

Dear Friends,

Thank you for all of your prayer support and friendship throughout Matthew's heart surgery.  He loved the cards and gifts you poured over him this summer - especially during those 2 weeks in the hospital.  We are so blessed to report that Matthew's doing great!  Friday was his 8 week check up post-op, and he's been taken off all medications and cleared to participate in a lot more activities.  Thanks be to God!!!  Matthew continues to claim Joshua 1:9 as his Bible verse:  Be strong and courageous.  Do not be terrified!  The Lord your God is with you wherever you go!

On Sunday, August 28th we will be participating in the Congenital Heart Walk.  It takes place at Forest Park.  The walk begins at 10 a.m., so we will go to early church at Webster (since it's CCLS Sunday) and then head over to the walk following the service.  We'd love for you to join us as Team Matthew.  If you have a shirt, feel free to wear it but that's not necessary to walk.  There is also no donation necessary to participate, but you are welcome to donate to Team Matthew if you feel compelled.  The funds raised support research for children and adults with Congenital Heart Defects.  Here's the info if you would like to join us.

Thank you, friends!
Love,
John, Erica and Matthew Spangler
