This is my handsome nephew, Jackson
Jackson is my brother, Scott's son.
Scott and his wife Laura along with their 3 kids Jackson(7), Makayla(6), Avianna(2) are missionaries in Colombia.
Their best friends in Colombia Alfredo and Juana's son Santiago was just diagnosed with stage 3 or 4 Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
Santiago is 4 years old.
Their family was planning on relocating to another city along with Scott and his family to begin a church plant there.
I don't know what plans will need to change because of all of this.
Please, please pray for Santiago and for his family.
He also has a sister, but I don't remember her name.
Pray also for Scott, Laura and their kids since they are so very close to this family and being home on furlough it's hard for them to know that their dear friends are going through this and they're so far away.
Please pray Jackson.
Santiago is Jackson's best friend and Jackson is such a sensitive caring boy.
I hate to think how hard this must be for him!
I have never met this family, but my heart is aching for them and also for my family whom I love so much and hate that they are going through such a hard time!
"I will extol the LORD at all times; his praise will always be on my lips.
My soul will boast in the LORD; let the afflicted hear and rejoice.
Glorify the LORD with me; let us exalt his name together.
I sought the LORD, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears."
"The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers them.
Taste and see that the LORD is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
Fear the LORD, you his saints, for those who fear him lack nothing.
The lions may grow weak and hungry, but those who seek the LORD lack no good thing.
The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their cry.
The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them, he delivers them from all their troubles.
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
A righteous man may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all.
Psalm 34:1-4, 8-10, 15, 17-19
