Please pray for the Siebersma family, and especially our 20-year-old daughter Zoe. Her husband of just over 7 months was arrested this past week and charged with assault, rape, and kidnapping. We don't know all the facts but have enough of the story to know the charges are not completely baseless. We're all hurting, and Zoe is at home with us and is processing a lot. We don't know how to pray for all the aspects of this ,but we know Zoe needs the Lord's comfort, peace, and wisdom.

From Karen Gerdts,
My precious mom, Mitzi, gave up her spirit to the Lord Friday at about 3:20 pm. She was surrounded by loving family. We are obviously very sad, but oh so grateful for our secure hope in Jesus, and for all our friends and family who have prayed us through this profound and worshipful experience. As she looked us in the eyes, Mom graced us with her last words..”love you.” Tom said a prayer to our Heavenly Father and we sang to her, “Precious Lord Take my Hand.” Before the song ended she went home to glory! Mercedes Maynard, 94 years

Daryl and Joanne were there Thursday to visit our Christian family. 💕

Prayers for Mitzi Maynard from Watertown Christian Church. She’s in SF hospital with liver complications. The liver biopsy procedure went fine, but the results will make no difference to her situation. The doctor just told the family that her lab numbers continue to get worse. The family plans to consult with a palliative care expert/hospice tomorrow.
