Prayers that Father Thomas and Matushka Lynn have the fullest opportunity to enjoy the time remaining to him in God's service here on earth.

Update:; Thanks for your prayers for Fr. Thomas and his family. They cancelled their cruise and trip to the Holy Land due to his failing health. Our 12 year old granddaughter, Madeleine, and her father, Keith, (our son-in-law) will be visiting him in Alaska next month flying there. Please pray for them and that the trip goes well.

gratefully yours in Christ,

porter..

Lord of the Powers be with us, for in times of distress we have no other help but You.
Lord of the Powers, have mercy on and heal Fr. Thomas.

Update: Fr. Thomas and his wife remain in good spirits with much faith during this crisis. However, they cancelled their trip to the Holy Land. It is just too difficult for him to travel now.
My grand daughter and her dad (Fr. Tom's son and grand daughter) are flying from here...up there soon for a good visit with him.

Again, appreciate your prayers as God hears and provides much comfort and strength for them.

Prayers for Fr. Tom and Lynn - he visited our home quite a few times when he was in Topeka, and I read for him on occasion at the Orthodox mission in Topeka years ago.

Thanks, Diak, I will ask Fr. Tom's son, my son-in-law, (who is going to Alaska soon) to share with them that you are among those who are praying. That should bless them.
