Community covers

Otter Creek is unique to other churches which I have attended. Each time some one comes to the front for prayers, they are joined by a huge crowd of friends and others in the community--literally covered up with those who empathize--what a great picture of love!

Today Hailey Hiatt, a young mother who has just found out that she has MS, came forward--I saw many hugs and tears there. We are all praying for her.

Also coming was the Meador family--Craig and Shellie have a niece who has leukemia and who will begin the ordeal of a bone marrow transplant this week . Prentice and Barbara Meador were there along with members of Palmer's family. Again many who do not even know the family came forth and covered them with arms of love.

I believe Palmer's web site is http://www.prayforpalmer.com/. Please add her and Hailey to your lists too.

Thank God for the community that cries and prays together and for the continuing recovery of Allie Nichols who has just endured a mysterious illness and is improving.
