Mark Hager Accident Update!

Hager Family Meals & Support - how we can help...
Anita Chambers will be the Westover contact coordinating needs for the Hager family. The outpouring of care and concern and offers to help have been amazing and Tere is very grateful for your prayers and your offers to help. Mark is currently still in ICU at Brackenridge and his recovery will be lengthy. If you or your care group would like to help by providing meals, please e-mail Anita at chambers@ieee.org. She will add you to the e-mail list and will send out a sign-up for needs as they arise. Meals are covered through early next week. After that, emails will be sent to notify everyone what they need for the following week or two.

Today's Specific Prayer Request: Mark's Creatinine is down 1/10 of a point today. He's headed in the right direction! Please pray that those levels will continue to decrease. Normal levels are between .5 and 1.0 and he is at 3.5. Creatinine levels are indicators of healthy kidney function.

Two Weeks left for On-Line Directory photos!

Our volunteer photographers have taken over 600 photos for our secure on-line directory. In consideration of their time, we will only be taking photos the next two Sundays. Please come by if you haven't had your member photo taken in preparation for the launch of our new directory.

Sign-up at the enterprise display near the Family Room. Our volunteer photographers will be available before class (8:45-9:00am), between class and worship, (10:00-10:20am), and after worship.
