Homecoming!

​Team EvanMarie, we have wonderful news: she is coming home today!

After being admitted way back on February 19 for a bone marrow transplant, EvanMarie has crossed all the benchmarks the doctors were hoping to see in her engraftment and recovery, and they have given us the green light to leave the hospital. It has been nearly a month on floor 8, perhaps the hardest month our family has ever endured, but God has brought us through it all.

Thank you for the continued prayers! Home will not be without its challenges. EvanMarie’s body is still very weak, and we will need time to readjust to life all together again, as she continues to heal. But home is where she belongs. Home is the best place for her recovery.

This past month has stretched us in ways we never imagined. And yet, through every long night and difficult day, we have felt the presence of God and our community. We come out of this season stronger, more grateful, and more dependent on God than ever before.

As we enter these final weeks of Lent, we give all glory to the One who sacrificed everything for our sake. In our own small way we take up the crosses entrusted to us, striving to follow the Father in obedience and to unite our sufferings with the suffering Body of Christ. 

Thank you for walking this road with us. This milestone feels like a huge step in her total healing. Glory to God in all things.
