We enjoyed fellowship with approximately 75 friends from the Philly Deaf community. Thank you everyone who participated in bringing their favorite (or famous) side dish or dessert. Thank you, too, to those who helped to serve in setting up, decorating, and cleaning. What a blessing you all are to one another and the body of Christ. God's very best to you all during this Holy-day Season. Remembering the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ, should thrill our hearts and anchor us in faith of the kingdom of God that has come to us...Emmanuel! (Isaiah 7:14)
President of AG Deaf Ministry, NF (National Deaf Culture Fellowship) Resigns for Health Reasons12/02/2011 Wonderful Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ Hope all is well with you and blessing continue flow through you and your family. I recently had my MRI and two doctors appointments. They have shared their concern about my brain. They are not sure if the radiation has caused two spots or if it is truly reoccurring tumors. They want me to come back in six weeks for more check up, etc. I’ve been praying and seeking the Lord’s guidance for clarification. I believe it time for me to step down and resign from NF President due to my health, even though, I truly believe I’m made whole through the blood of Christ! I appreciate Rev. Belinda McCleese taking over, as NF President and know she will do a wonderful job. Please pray for her. I want to say thank you all for your prayer, cards and many encouragement. Janie and I love you. God bless you abundantly Rev.
