I'm Back!!

Well, I feel like I've been gone for a month or longer - actually it almost has been.
I just went to the doctor and the last thing I know I ended up in the hospital and then ended up in Atlanta for the very tragic funeral of my 22 year old cousin.
Then, while there, was faced with questions from family members that I felt not quite ready to answer. I just asked the Holy Spirit to guide me and asked God to clean up what I messed up. :) It has defintely taught me that I need to be out in the world more today witnessing - just talking and building relationships with people; finding out what they believe and why. And asking God to teach me His Word more so that I will know these answers in ways that people today will understand or will be able to relate to; not something that is foreign to them. I keep telling myself I have an excuse - I've had brain surgery and I'm on medication, so that's why I'm not as sharp as I used to be. :) (No comments from my proffesors on that one)

RACE FOR THE CURE is coming up - it will be on Oct. 28th this year. It is the 10th anniversary and will begin at the World's Fair Site this year. I'm trying to send out emails to everyone, but if you do not get one please go to www.Komenknoxville.org to get signed up for my team - "Kim's Krusaders". Same as before - you can sign up as a team member, but don't have to show up or can show up just for support. You can sign up as "sleep in for the cure" this year". Both of these choices will still get you t-shirts. I also have a Fund raising web page this year and people can just give money that way if they wish. With it being the 10th anniversary, they are asking that each team member give an extra $10.00. So, if you would like to do that, that would be great too.

It is getting late and I must go for now, but Elizabeth has been on to me to make sure I update my Blog so that everyone will know what is going on. So, I'm trying to do that, but it is 2 a.m. and I am falling asleep. So, I will work on it again tomorrow.

Prayer requests (for now)
1. That my new medications will continue to work
2. For my family in the loss of my cousin
3. For my cousin who has still not given his life to the Lord, but seeds are planted
4. For doctors visits that I have this week
5. For things I want to do this week without a car - because I can't drive - for how long - the doctor doesn't know yet. And it's a little hard for me to stay in one place for long. :)

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, all so much for praying and caring. I can feel your prayers and thoughts and hugs.
