Six hundred.

I just e-mailed the last two names out. All six hundred sheets have a little black dot in the corner. People around the world are praying, and this feels so right.

Thank you, all of you. Thank you for responding, for caring about people you'll never meet and for tangling your lives up in the fabric of this place.

I'm heading down to the OR office right now to give back all the pink sheets.

We don't need them anymore.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. How wonderful it has been to pray for our brothers and sisters. This has really touched my heart in such a special way. I am so happy that you and HoJ will be off on your wonderful adventure. You will be in my daily prayers. I do love your blog and have been so touched by reading it. I look forward to any entries you will make while you are on your trips. God Bless You.

Just discovered your blog, actually via Liz's blog. Wish I'd discovered it earlier as you write very well !What an awesome story to think each one of those patients is actually not forgotten, but prayed for and trusted to the Father who can do immeasurably more than all we hope or imagine. Also was thrilled to hear Balkissa got taken for her ECHO. Paul and I talked much and prayed much about what to do for her...anymore news on the ECHO diagnosis? I am praying you have a great trip and that I will see you next year in SL. Michelle White

Wow, you're such a good writer. I'm so happy that each pink sheet has been covered with prayer. May God continue to direct your paths as you begin this new adventure. And please keep us updated as you're able to here! Blessings!
