Friends,
Let’s be thankful we’re able to get back together safely. Please continue doing your part to stay safe and being respectful of others as we continue to get together. We’ll continue to get together on Wednesdays and Fridays as long as we’re doing it safely. Thank you to all for being so respectful of each other and the virus. We’re getting closer to getting through it each week.
Our friend Joel Harris shared a fun video that he made with some friends. He’s the drummer in the video. Did you know that Joel is such a talented drummer? He sure looks like he’s having fun! Here’s a link to the video…enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pE23U61xf6E
March is MS awareness month. I think we’re all aware of the many challenges we have with MS. Traci sent me a link to an online event that sounds pretty interesting. Here’s Traci’s message:

I heard about this on the radio today. I thought I would share.
iHeartRadio and Novartis are recognizing Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month with a one-of-a-kind event. Watch a can’t-miss performance from Andy Grammer, as he is joined by iHeartRadio personality Skeery Jones and MS patient advocate Kate Milliken for a night of music and conversation that will uplift and inspire all those who tune in. It’s all happening Thursday, March 11th at 5 PM PT/ 8 PM ET on iHeartRadio’s official YouTube page. If you can’t make the event, the whole show will be available on this channel from March 12th-18th.

Thanks for sharing Traci! I hope you can tune in.
I really like Andy Grammer’s song “Don’t give up on me” Here’s a link to it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ouEezpuPc3A
Speaking of MS Awareness Month, have you check out some of the information the National MS Society is putting out this month? You can check some of it out here at this link. https://www.nationalmssociety.org/Get-Involved/Raise-Awareness I’m thankful we have so many people doing so much for us living with MS.

Last week, our prayer group was once again…powerful! I just love the way we share, pray together and witness prayers being answered weekly. Thanks goes to God and to everyone that joins us.
Our Zoom prayer group on Wednesday mornings are a great place to get together virtually, catch up a bit and give thanks. It’s awesome seeing so many of you there laughing, listening, sharing, giving thanks and praying!
We’ll be doing it again tomorrow (Wednesday) @ 11:30am. We’ll get together via zoom and share, talk, listen, give thanks and pray however God leads us. It’s a way for all of us to get together virtually to catch up and be there for each other and with each other. I hope you’ll join us!

My heart goes out to all the people and families of the people that have been affected by COVID-19. Whether actually having it, being exposed to it, being affected by businesses being shut down, losing your job, working on the front line, etc. These are tough times and we really need to take it seriously and do our part of practicing social distancing and all other recommendations. I hope you and your family are safe. Let’s keep everyone affected in our prayers and pray we all get through this as safely as we can.
As we all go through this pandemic together, I encourage you to share a smile with someone. Perhaps you could give someone a call that you haven’t talked with for a while just to see how they’re doing. This pandemic is tough in many ways. We all could use a little extra love and encouragement during these times.
Let’s be thankful for all the doctors, nurses and everyone in the health care that are putting themselves at risk every day and every night as they serve those with the Coronavirus. These are amazing, selfless, courageous people! Let’s also give thanks to all the people in the world that are working diligently to develop testing equipment and ways to treat this Coronavirus. Let’s also give thanks for all the people that are working diligently to produce protective gear, respirators, and any other medical equipment to help us get through this pandemic.
We may be inconvenienced in many ways but others have it much worse. Let’s be thankful we have each other. I know I’m thankful for you!
Let’s stay calm, focused, healthy, flexible, have faith and learn as much as we can about the challenges of each day and make good choices.
See you soon…better days are ahead!
In God We Trust!
Dan
