• Hey church! It's that time again! We could use some extra snacks for the kids program :). Typically cookies, fruit snack, granola bars and crackers are just fine. We could also use some gluten free options as well :)
    1. By when...
  • Please pray.

    Please pray for Johnnie Mae Pruitt and Carol Wilson and family (Angela and Ashely), as they deal with the death of Husband, Dad and Grandfather, Willie Pruitt. There will be a celebration of life held at the Pacific way campus on January 17th, at 11:00. Following the memorial service there will be a grave side internment at Greenhills Cemetery with military honors at 1:30. Pray for the family as they work through all of the details and arrangements. Pray for comfort and presence of the Holy Spirit as they each individually grieve their loss.

If you’re looking to get some hands on training to get a jump start on theme and curriculum, I would highlight recommend it! It’s a Friday evening/Saturday morning training in Lakewood WA. If you are interested in going, please let me know ASAP. Depending on how many people would like to go, we are looking at getting an AIR BNB house. I have an actual flyer, when I’m at my computer, I’ll post that next :)

        2. Hey everyone. Many of you have been asking about this and I’ll post here to share. I just finished my surgical consult over the phone. There were a lot of details, but here is the general information of what is going to happen, as I have agreed to do surgery: What they are going to do: Laminectomy and discectomy Bi lateral laminectomy L3 - L4 Bi lateral laminectomy L4 - L5 Laminectomy L5 - S1 on the right. Discetomy L3 - L4 Discetomy L4 - L5 No Fusion Risks/Expectations: Minimal Typical surgical risks. Possible that this will just be the beginning of a series of surgeries since I’m so young. Possible that my foot drop will not get better, because my situation is not typical of what usually happens during herniations, it’s possible that nothing will get better. Recovery: 2 - 3 Nights in Hospital 1 Month active healing of the wound. 3 - 6 months of overall on going recovery. Timing Of Surgery: Due to all the sickness currently, hospitals are currently in “Crisis mode.” So scheduling my surgery for “As soon as possible” doesn’t mean much, and that I’m simply on a list waiting for the scheduler to contact me and schedule the surgery. Some people have asked how I feel about all of this, and here are my honest thoughts. I’m a little nervous, mainly because I’ve never had a surgery before, I’ve been pretty healthy my whole life. The thought of being knocked out and then waking up after someone has cracked me open is a little unnerving. I’m a little bummed that he told me that we could do all of this and there is a possibility it won’t fix anything because my situation is not typical of what they see in my MRIs. BUT I’m ready to fight to move on from this season of life. I’ve been through enough in my life that the Lord has demonstrated His faithfulness, kindness and graciousness time and time again. Whatever my lot in life is, I know it’s for His glory and my good.
          1. Continuing to keep you in my prayers, Andrew.
          2. 🙏’s for a good outcome.
          3. 🙏
