Great Encounter Testimony from Stratford Heights

Some updates on some prayer needs:
Debbie Ballard (my brother, Tom's wife) came home from the hospital after a heart cath came back showing no blockages in her heart. She has no chest pains and is feeling good. Thanks everyone for your prayers.
Anna Hilton is home after pace-maker surgery. She is doing well.
Please remember Amanda McClure who was running a high fever and sick in bed most of the week.

Thank you for the sympathy cards and phone calls from our friends and church family. Annette, Gabe, and I are overwhelmed with the love of God that has been shown to us. My mother also tonight told me she has received many cards from the people at Kings Point. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness toward her and your prayers for her. She is doing well.

Recently, I had breakfast with Dave Anderson. Dave and Missy are leading encounters and assisting in starting cells over at Stratford Heights. Dave led a men's encounter last weekend. He was telling me that last year at this time there was a little girl here in Cincinnati that had a tree limb fall on her during the ice storm and tragically took her life. Dave said her dad came to the encounter. At the encounter he stood up and received Christ as his Lord and Savior. His wife a few weeks before attended the ladies encounter. Dave said that these are just two of many people who God has changed through encounters at Stratford Heights over the past year.

To God be the glory!
