Sharon is back to work today! This is her first 12 hour day since February. If you are reading this before 7 pm today, pray for her that she will have strength for what she needs to do today. We know that everywhere she goes, she is a testimony for how God has been at work in her life through this cancer. Pray that she will radiate God's love in all she does today.

She saw her doctors yesterday and they were very pleased with her progress. The surgeon doesn't need to see her for two months. The oncologist will see her again in three weeks when she has her next infusion of Herceptin. She will be scheduled for another PET scan after that meeting and then we will make our plans to go to Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa for them to review everything that has been done. Sharon has participated in their database study on breast cancer so this is a logical step for us to take in making sure we are doing everything that needs to be done.

As Sharon was finding out about her illness, I was needing to make a decision about traveling with The CenturyMen (www.thecenturymen.com) to the UK on their international mission tour. I deceided not to go but the men are leaving on July 3. Pleased pray that God will use them to rekindle the flame that has gone dark in that part of the world. Music is so powerful and, when combined with God's Word, it can make a tremendous difference in the lives of the hearers. God did not permit me to go at this time but my heart is going with my brothers. Please pray for them.

Thank you for all your prayers on our behalf.

"By his strips we are healed.....". I thank God for Sharon's healing and her unmovable faith, through her may the blind eyes be opened to Christ and his love.

Hello there Jewett Family; Hope that all is well. It's hard to believe that time has flown by, and wedding plans are in full swing. Since school got out I've been working just 4 hours a day at a office that I used to work at before my school job. It makes the day fly by that's for sure. We continue to pray and think of the Jewett's....
