dad

thank you for your continued prayers for tim's dad's health. ken had his third round of chemo last thursday. and despite feeling a bit tired - and a weird taste in his in mouth - his body held up well. he continues to amaze us with his regular workouts and keeping up with his work schedule. please pray for him as he has much on his plate in these next few weeks and desires (as always) to be fully present with the energy he needs. he has received over 30 hats in the mail in response to a great idea vickie had and they all find great joy in people's generous (and funny) gifts. we are thankful for skype and an ability to talk with them weekly on the phone. there are days when it is still hard to be away, but we are incredibly thankful for the way the Lord has used the community to communicate His love and support to them. we are also thankful beyond words that the cancer is responding to the chemo. the Lord continues to make Himself know to our family through this process, for which we are grateful. we covet your prayers and are abundantly thankful for your friendships.

with love, kristi & tim (and the greater knipp clan)
