Chemo

Please say a prayer for Katie and her family this week.  After spending some time during the Christmas holiday at home, she is now halfway through her second round of chemo in San Antonio and is gearing up for her upcoming bone marrow transplant.  Marla asks us to also say a prayer for the bone marrow donors who are giving this gift to someone they have never met.

Have you seen the newspapers recently?  Katie was featured on the front page of both the Hill Country Community Journal and the Kerrville Daily Times over the holidays (Click here to see photo from KDT).  It's nice to see her story out there.

Also, if you would like to get a purple bracelet to show your support of Katie, those are still available for $5 each.  Hal Peterson Middle School Student Council is taking orders for "Katie's Klan" t-shirts for $10.  I still have some sets of cards with Katie's art work for $10 each.  Money raised through the sale of these items will go to the McCarty family to help offset costs of treatment for cancer.  Click here for more info on how to get those items.

Hope you've all had a lovely Christmas holiday and are approaching the New Year with peace and happiness.
