Elena Schlener is with the Lord

Hey guys - I spoke with Jess at 5:30 this morning(2:30 their time). Elena had just passed away. They are trying to finalize all the plans, but just please lift up Philip and especially the kids today as they absorb it. They were all around her singing praise/worship songs as they "handed her to Jesus" was how Jess described it. Thanks for continuing to lift them up!!!!!

Praise and Prayer

I was suffering with a massive toothache and finally was able to get it fixed yesterday. I cried in the dentist's chair because I was so happy I would sleep without pain that night.

However I'm dealing with another bought of sickness. Now I have body aches, and nausea/vomiting. Please pray it will pass swiftly and that i will wake up in the morning feeling better.

Some of you may have heard me talk about this

My friend Dawn and her 10 year old son Gabe lost EVERYTHING they own in a house fire last night (in Burnaby, BC).

The fire was caused by her landlady's cigarette. Luckily they were able to escape unharmed but at the moment all they have is their car and the clothes they were wearing when they escaped into the night (in Dawn's case that's just a bathrobe). Two weeks before Christmas they have lost everything and unfortunately didn't have tenant insurance.

Dawn is a single parent and was concerned about Christmas to begin with. Now she and Gabe have much bigger things to worry about.

Dawn passed on this information:

Gabe...
He is a size 7 or 8 in pants (adjustable waists required).
He wears a size 4 shoe. Shirts he can wear a 9 or 10.
He loves all things hockey, and airplanes. The loss of the xbox is going to kill him, but that can come another day. Lucky for him, his PS2 is at the neighbours, but all the games are gone.

Me...
A 10 or 12 in pants. I prefer large shirts. I wear a size 10 shoe.

For now she's staying with a friend. If you can help, let me know and I'll give you the address where Dawn and Gabe are staying, and/or her Paypal address.
