Richmond Family Updates

(Written by Becky) I can’t stop thinking about a poem my Gramp taught me called “America for me!” by Henry Van Dyke. Look it up! It’s about living in Europe and coming home. Keith and I are moving home. As soon as possible. We want our family to be together during this difficult time. We […]

In every season of my life, there is still a reason to sing. Thank you for your prayers. Love Chris  

I’m going to a retreat for 10 days!  I found a 10 day program for health renewal, detox, immune system support – raw foods, juice, wheat grass, etc.   The kind woman I talked with on the phone is a Christian, and she told me also the Director is as well.  He also is a stage […]

Thank you for praying for our visit to Sloan on Tuesday. I’m not sure how to report.  It was a bit discouraging.

Also, we were getting some messages that its was difficult to find where to read and leave comments in the old design. We think this design […]

My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly trust in Jesus’ Name. When darkness seems to hide His face, I rest on His unchanging grace. In every high and stormy gale, My anchor holds within the veil. His oath, His covenant, His […]

Dear Jesus, My life is in Your Hands…I choose to trust you. Love, Chris  

(Written by Becky) We’ve been holding our breath all day, unable to concentrate on much, while we wait for the phone call. The phone call to tell us if Mom’s cancer has spread to her brain or bones. We really need a small glimmer of hope right now – our spirits and emotions are low. […]
