1/16/23 Update - Colin is in a new day program and the manager and a male staff member is working with Colin. The male employee is working on his masters and it’s in the field of behavioral therapy and Autism. This is a blessing that God would put Colin in a new program, with a male, and with someone training in the field of caring for those with intellectual disabilities. Colin seems to be doing well in the program and we pray it continues.
Eddie's chest pain is there when he stresses. Work has been more demanding for Eddie since they are short two partners and the worries of Colin have both impacted his stress level. Pray we will know if the time has come for Eddie to retire. I’ve been praying for God's guidance for us both and what God wants for us regarding work/retirement.
My passion is helping others and I don’t know how God wants to use me to do that. I don’t feel like my current career is how I can pour into those that need me, but I don’t know what the next chapter is. Eddie's blood pressure medicine was increased and he is to continue to monitor his chest pain so his heart doctor can decide on a heart Cath. He returns to work tomorrow.
We also have a family member trying to bring stress into our family and I refuse to allow it. Pray God continues to guide us with healthy boundaries and healing. We do have a meeting with this family member this coming Friday so please pray for peace and God to intervene in the situation.
Grateful for your prayers!

1/11/23: Since my husband and I started the Leadership Pipeline, Satan has tried to attack our family and home in major ways.
We are trusting God and believing through the difficulties something will come of it that will bring glory to His name.
Please pray for Eddie as he’s come home from work with chest pain. He had heart surgery in 2016 and the stress associated with our special needs son has taken a toll on Eddie. Over the last month we’ve had behavioral issues and issues with getting care for our son. That stress has gradually worn Eddie down. Eddie had an EKG today and it didn’t show he was having a heart attack but it did show PVC’s. If it continues he’ll get a heart catheterization. Please pray for healing of Eddie’s heart, for caregivers for Colin, and for peace from all the attacks Satan is trying to use.
