Dad is Ready for Visitors!

Dad told me today that he is ready to see you and allow you to come and pray for him! He is excited about the upcoming events at church and is looking forward to getting involved once again. Obviously there is still a lot of healing that needs to take place -- Dad just started using his legs again, and he is scheduled for two surgeries within the next year. However, we are optomistic that Dad will make a full recovery and be able to get back involved in some church projects in the near future.

So here is how this visitation thing is going to work:
Rachael is going to be the contact for visitors who would like to come see and pray for Dad. Her phone number is 405-517-2099. All visits must be cleared through Rachael. If you desire to visit Dad, please call Rachael and setup an appointment (you can also use facebook or email rachael@characterfocus.com to set an appointment).

Dad is prepared to receive visitors on weekdays between 3:00pm and 5:00pm. Dad still has some difficulty with extended visitors or to much stimulation, so we are requesting that visitors limit their visit to 15min. When you call Rachael, she will discuss with you an exact time based on Dad's schedule (i.e. 4:15pm-4:30pm). The family has requested that all visits be approved through Rachael; thank you for honoring this request.

Rachael plans to schedule visits on a first come first serve basis. She is going to keep a calendar and stay in touch with Mom and Grandma who spend many hours at the hospital. If Dad has a hard day or a change in schedule on the day you are scheduled to visit, Rachael may call you and reschedule your appointment. Thanks in advance for your flexibility and consideration.


Today was a good day at Western Hills Church. Attendance was high and you could sense excitment about The Mission events coming next week (see http://www.westernhillschurch.com/ for details). Pastor Wells played a short video of Dad that went along with the message. We have posted that video to this blog... hope it is a blessing to you! Thank you for continuing to pray for our family. I know Jesus is enough, but I am sure glad He has blessed us with friends and family like you. We love you all!
