Oh God, hear our cry!

Over the past couple of years Kathy and I have connected with Mike & Stacy Stavlund of the Washingon D.C. area. Good people. Passionate Jesus people. Real to the core. Kingdom exhibitionists 24-7.

Yea see. They are in love. Faithful love. They've struggled to have kids for years. Now this past May their first kids arrived. A comlete family - twins. Will & Ella Stavlund with glowing parents.

But Will had only two fully developed chambers in his heart. Yet, he grew. He glowed. Mom and dad and a thousand people around the world cheering and praying him forward. I know I mentioned it, but these are people that are hard to find. As I said, they are kingdom exhibitionists.

We got home from vacation late Friday night, five days without phone or wi-fi service. Quiet. Relaxing. Good.

But, we also came home to news that Will died rather suddenly this past Tuesday. Airline tickets are hard to find; we're still hoping for a flight. More importantly, if you read this, please say a prayer for Mike and Stacey and Ella. Please!

Oh God, hear our cry!
