Dec 29 - surgery in 10 days

Today was the date first given to us for Dan's surgery, but the reality is that the surgery was changed to January 8th. It is a big and long (8 hours) undertaking which involves removing a portion of several organs and challenging the liver to regenerate in order to remove an additional portion of it in 6 weeks after the first surgery. Wow! That is a great deal to recover from. Dan needs all your prayers for a smooth and speedy recovery. The hope is that he will emerge from all this with a complete cure which will make all this definitely worthwhile. We appreciate your faithfulness to present these requests before the throne of God in our time of need.
Here is a link to Dan and Ashley's blog:

Philippians 4:6-8
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
