December is traditionally a month of joy and celebration, but a member of JHES family, Christine Pendley, has recently been knocked down with the news that her cancer has returned. Sadly, this time it is non-operable. The doctor's give her a 5%-7% chance of survival. However, Christine's faith is strong and her spirit is amazing!
First of all I just ask that you lift Christine, her family, and her doctors up in prayer. Next, I feel like our class can help them out during this emotional time. She has four precious children that she has to feed. Therefore, I thought it would be appropriate for us to collect gift cards to fast food restaurants. The amount does not have to be extravagant. Five dollars to McDonalds would help them out. If you are interested in giving to the Pendley family please send your gift card(s) to school by Thursday, Dec. 18. I will make sure she gets them. Also, this next week we will be making "get well" cards for me to deliver to her.
