Too, people have asked again what our address is. It is:
101 East 35th Street
Sioux Falls, SD 57105
USA
I have been thinking of Bill quite a lot lately; partly because of All Saints Day, and he was a saint, my Bill. We also brought his ashes home. Robin had taken them with her, and they had been basking in the South Dakota sunshine in their sunroom on the farm. I hadn't wanted to bring him here, because there has been no respectful place for the urn amidst the chaos, but to leave him behind was almost unthinkable. "But where could we put him??" I asked Diane. She thought, and then, matter-of-factly said, "The workroom." And so there he sits, looking at his dad's work bench, in the cleanest room of the house, and the one which would have made him the most content.
Prayer requests:
Please continue to pray for Karl's complete and utter healing. I have not abandoned a mother's lament, and find myself quite at home amidst these psalms. Please join me in my lament, and in my hope that drives the lament, namely that the lament will be heard, and mercy will be given.
Please continue to pray for little girl Else, for her patience as we try to finish the moving-in process, and as I continue to be distracted by all that falls into my mind these days.
Please continue to pray for me, for the patience I too need, and so desperately. Please pray that I not give up hope.
Please continue to pray for all those who are helping us, and praise God for them all.
Please pray for a young girl, a niece of good friends of mine, who has discovered yesterday that she has a brain tumor, and is going to Rochester tomorrow for treatment. Please pray for her family and all who love her as well.
Please pray for each of you, who, as I tell all who help us, are being Jesus to us.
God is good.
Peace,
Anna
