Good Day Bloggers, Thanks for your prayers and concern. We are blessed to have you on the team. Erin is doing fine except for a nagging stomach ache and lingering itches. We go tomorrow morning for labs, so we will see what they say. I figure her numbers will be down and she might need blood products by her Thurs appt. if at all. Erin had a nice visit from her mentor teacher today and got all excited again about getting back to teaching in the fall. It is nice to have something to look forward to beyond all the chemo. Her PRHS friends have been so supportive! Our thanks to all of you as well as our to church family and friends for your love and prayers. They say it takes a village to raise a child. Well, it also takes a village to support a cancer victim and God has blessed us with an awesome village! To God be the glory!
In the book of Acts, Jesus tells Peter 3 times how to show his love for Christ. He says to "feed his lambs," "take care of his sheep," and "feed his sheep." I am not a Bible scholar, but it seems to me that when God says something 3 times, it must be pretty important! You all have gone above and beyond in helping us take care of this particular lamb and I know God is saying, "Well done, good and faithful servants!"
Love you all, janet

A teen boy asks his Dad "Can I drive the car?" The Dad replied "No, not until you cut your hair, Son.” The boy exclaimed, "But, Jesus had long hair!"
The Dad replied, "Yes, and Jesus walked everywhere!"

That Susan -- What a blessing! She is a real stitch isn't she? I just love her! I will miss her this Summer while EQUATE is out of session for summer break!
I wish you could have been at the Disciple Commissioning last night if anything just to see the number of youth who took part in the Youth Disciple Bible Study - Erin, there must have been at least 20 to 30 kids and Emily Disher gave such a wonderful testimony! You would have been so proud of her!
I guess you know about Andrew by now -- got a promotion to Senior Pastor at a church in Between - I think that is the town between Loganville and Monroe bence its name and I believe it is Walton County. He made the announcement at youth last night. Jane Burns told me this morning. There was quite a bit of consoling to be done from what I hear.
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God." Colossians 3:16 (NIV)
Thought you might find that scripture a little encouraging -- it just sort of came to me as I was sitting here writing to you!
Continued prayers for continued healing, continued prayers for excellent labs today and Thursday, Continued prayers for better rest and for side effects to subside. Continued praises for your strong Prayer Warriors who just love you and continue to wrap you in love and happiness while sharing smiles with you and your family!
Much Blessings and Grace,
The Cotners

TODAY'S CLEAN LAUGH
*Resume Examples*
These are real examples from real resumes:
*Reasons For Leaving Last Job*
- Responsibility makes me nervous.
- They insisted that all employees get to work by 8:45 every morning. Couldn't work under those conditions.
- Was met with a string of broken promises and lies, as well as cockroaches.
- I was working for my mom until she decided to move.
- The company made me a scapegoat - just like my three previous employers.
*Job Responsibilities*
- While I am open to the initial nature of an assignment, I am decidedly disposed that it be so oriented as to at least partially incorporate the experience enjoyed heretofore and that it be configured so as to ultimately lead to the application of more rarefied facets of financial management as the major sphere of responsibility.
- I was proud to win the Gregg Typting Award.
*Special Requests and Job Objectives*
- Please call me after 5:30 because I am self-employed and my employer does not know I am looking for another job.
- My goal is to be a meteorologist. But since I have no training in meteorology, I suppose I should try stock brokerage.
- I procrastinate - especially when the task is unpleasant.
*Physical Disabilities*
- Minor allergies to house cats and Mongolian sheep.
*Personal Interests*
- Donating blood. 14 gallons so far.
*Small Typos That Can Change the Meaning*
- Education: College, August 1880-May 1984.
- Work Experience: Dealing with customers' conflicts that arouse.
- Develop and recommend an annual operating expense fudget.
- I'm a rabid typist.
- Instrumental in ruining entire operation for a Midwest chain operation.
*Thanks to Pastor Tim for this joke!*

What lucky students who will have you as a teacher next fall Erin. I know that loving teaching and being excited about teaching is just about the important thing in making a good teacher.
We are praying for these days of icky stomach and other symptoms to pass as painlessly as possible.
Love, The Stills
