Richmond Family Updates

(Written by Jean)

As anyone who has been reading this blog knows, the Richmond family has been facing some huge challenges. In the last couple of months, these challenges have been compounded. Chris has had some results which are not favorable, including the diagnosis that the cancer has spread to her brain.
The good news is that her faith is strong, as is the faith of her family. That being said, she is going through the recommended treatments which include radiation (which has already been done), and chemo to come soon.
Besides the challenges Chris is facing, the family is also dealing with John’s mom, Barb Richmond, being ill. John has had to go to be with his mom, which means he can’t be with Chris right now.
Prayer Requests;
1) Strength, courage, healing, and comfort, for Chris as she goes through the next round of treatments, and that there will be no nasty side effects.
2) Wisdom for Chris, John, and the rest of the family as more options become available.
3) Peace and comfort for all loved ones as they faithfully wait for some good news.
4) Healing for Barb.
5) Peace in the midst of the storms for all involved.

As the friends and family of the Richmond’s agree in prayer, there is something happening in the spirit realm. Keeping our eyes on Christ, and on His will, His faithfulness, is of most importance.
One of the things which stands out to me in this family right now, is how the hand of God has been moving even though there are all of these challenges.
Keith and Becky have welcomed a blessing of the Lord into their lives in the past couple of months. It amazes me how the Lord’s timing for things is so important. The baby is truly a blessing, which is much needed while dealing with things which are difficult.
God knows the end from the beginning, let’s trust Him.
