Kevin and I have been praying for y’all – as have practically everyone at church. Not sure if you had heard, but Rick included y’all in a prayer during the service last Sunday.
We’re glad you’re updating this site, as I know everyone in our Sunday School class has been looking for updates – we had a phone chain going. Definitely let us know if there’s anything we can do, or if you just want some company and a hug.

Gideon is adorable! Looking forward to further pictures!

We have been and will continue to pray for you all. We know that Gideon will be the Mighty Warrior that he is named for.

“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.”
-Mark 11:24

Much love to you all.

Add me to the list of people who will help with anything you need. When Rowan was born, we had so much help. I want to pay it forward.

My prayers are with you. I have asked all the prayer warriors at my church to pray for all of you, especially Gideon. My God continue to give you comfort and peace in this situation.

Micah and I have been thinking about you and praying for you and your family these last few days, and lots of folks in Minnesota have you on their prayer lists. I was just reading some of the biblical story of Gideon–your little guy shares a name with one tough customer! I was particularly struck by this line: “When the angel of the LORD appeared to Gideon, he said, ‘The LORD is with you, mighty warrior.’” May you continue to take comfort in your faith, family, and friends.
