Update April 6th 2023

Thank you for you continued prayers. Pastor Paul is gradually continuing to improve. He stood up 3 times today and his pneumonia is improving. The next step will be getting him to a different facility so he can start the rehabilitation process.

Please continue praying for continued healing from the stroke and in his lungs. Be praying for therapy as it happens at the hospital and that he is able to be released soon to a rehab facility. Pray for open doors for the facility that will be best suited to help him in his recovery!

Thank you again for your continued prayer and support for Pastor Paul, Robin, and the family!

Update March 28th 2023

​Thank you for your continued prayers and support for Pastor Paul, Robin, and the family. Like we mentioned Sunday, we are in the stage of recovery where day to day progress is less noticeable, but the overall trajectory is still improving. He is still very alert, laughs and involved in the conversations, even though he can’t talk yet at this point. He is getting closer, and our prayer is that as his brain heals and as he undergoes speech therapy, we will see more improvement in that area.

He is encouraged by all of the prayers! We serve a big God and we continue to believe for faster than normal improvement as he recovers!

Update March 23rd 2023

​Thank you so much for your continued prayers and support. We have already seen God do so much and He is continuing to move! Pastor Paul is much more stable and continues to be very alert. They are hoping to be able to move him from ICU to another room soon. Once that happens, they can be even more intentional with the recovery process. He is doing PT and speech therapy.

At this point, the recovery is a little slower and big changes happen a little less frequently. This is a process! With that in mind, we are going to be updating Pastor Paul’s condition on the website on Tuesdays and Thursdays and have a live update in our Sunday morning services. That said, we serve a BIG God, and if something big happens on a day we don’t have a scheduled update, we will let you know!

Pastor Paul has been so encouraged knowing how many people are praying for him! Thank you again!!

Let’s keep our hearts and minds focused on God continuing to work and heal!

Philippians 4:8-9
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.

Update March 20th 2023

Our God is a Big God!

Pastor Paul was very alert today and his movements are continuing to improve. He is smiling a lot and loved hearing how many people are praying for him!

God is working in a mighty way through.

Update March 19th 2023

Our God is a Big God!

Pastor Paul has been more alert each day. He is smiling and has spoken a few words. He squeezed Robin’s hand and tried to sing along to “Livin’ on a Prayer” by Bon Jovi. To see how far he’s come in just a matter of days is remarkable!!

Continue to keep praying. It is making a big difference!

Update March 17th 2023

Thank you all for your continued prayers for Pastor Paul, Robin and the kids.

Pastor Paul is off the vent and breathing on his own – with oxygen in his nose – so that’s GREAT news!

He has been responsive to voice and is responding to some of the tests they are giving him. God is moving!!

We still have a long road ahead and there will be many hurdles to overcome.  But God………

Update March 16th 2023

Thank you all for your continued prayers for Pastor Paul, Robin and the kids. They are truly being felt. 

Today Paul was able to open his eyes when prompted to, and they are attempting to wean him off the ventilator and the sedation in order to further evaluate the extent of the damage to his brain.
