I just had a thought today to look at www.charleswore.com and find out what you and Charles are up to. I couldn't believe it when I read about your illness. How brave you are during such a difficult time! Your deep, abiding faith comes through "loud and clear" in your writing, and you are an inspiration to all who read your words. I will inform my family of the news, and we will stay in touch. Know that you and all of your wonderful family are in our hearts and prayers. I am thinking of this hymn: "O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast And our eternal home." With much love in Christ, Cousin Mindy Werling Dear, dear Connie!

Doctors and tests, marrow and cancer sing to the lord a new song Needles and pills, blood cells and chemo sing to the lord a new song She has done marvelous things I too shall praise her with a new song Love to you on this sunny March day Heidi Mom

Doctors and tests, marrow and cancer
sing to the lord a new song
Needles and pills, blood cells and chemo
sing to the lord a new song
She has done marvelous things
I too shall praise her with a new song

Love to you on this sunny March day

We will continue to pray for you in chapel and I know many include you in their personal prayers. May I be so bold as to quote one of my favorite hymns. O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. Under the shadow of thy throne Still may we dwell secure; Sufficient is thine arem alone, And our defense is sure. Before the hill in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting thou art God, To endless years the same. Peace in Jesus, Bo Thanks for putting your thoughts down on this webpage.

O God, our help in ages past,
Our hope for years to come,
Our shelter from the stormy blast,
And our eternal home.

Under the shadow of thy throne
Still may we dwell secure;
Sufficient is thine arem alone,
And our defense is sure.

Before the hill in order stood,
Or earth received her frame,
From everlasting thou art God,
To endless years the same.

Peace in Jesus,
Bo

It's a gift you give to all of us. I hadn't heard that hymn before. Now it's mine to put in my pocket and carry with me, it's words ready comfort me one day.

Lee Scott is one of my all-time favorites and you have added new meaning to the words with your experiences! May they continue to uphold you with the strength that only the Lord, our TREE OF LIFE can offer. Congratulations on the completion of "round three" although you feel so much like a bruised pin-cushion! May that soreness abate quickly. With love to you in Jesus, Irene and Ivan Dear Connie,
