Good morning to everyone. There was a fund raiser at Ricks on the River yesterday as well as a ride in support of Howie.

Good morning! What a beautiful day! Please join us this morning for Barry’s sermon. Remember just because we can’t be in Church physically doesn’t mean we can’t continue to learn about our Lord and practice our faith. Please continue to remember those who are sick or hurting today and every day. Bless you all until we can meet again! ❤️🙏

Update on Howie posted by Lisa Pruett Weadon on Sept 3rd: “Looking more like himself the last couple days. Hanging in there…waiting to find out what the next step in his recovery is going to be. We would both like to thank everyone again for the continued love, support, and prayers. “

Please say an extra prayer for Howie tonight. He has to go back into surgery first thing in the morning for a couple issues that have developed with his pelvis and his leg. Not at all how we expected this afternoon to go. Thank you all.

*Message from Howie… Thanks All. I’m going into this with my head up and my shoulders broad. I appreciate all of your thoughts and prayers through everything. Love you all.

Good morning! I hope this finds you all in good health and good spirits! Please remember to keep all of those who are sick or hurt in your prayers and thoughts! Now to start our week off right with a new sermon from Pastor Barry!

The Parsonage phone is currently out of service. The telephone company has been notified but the expected date to come fix it isn’t until Sep 3rd! Anyone needing to reach Pastor Barry please call him on his cell phone at: (540) 816-9480. We’ll let you know when the Parsonage phone is working once again. Thank you!

Good morning! I hope all of you are doing well this morning! Please continue to keep all of those who are sick in your prayers and thoughts!

Sorry I haven’t had a chance to share Lisa’s update for a couple of days as I haven’t been home much and my phone doesn’t always work as well as my computer. So here are a few updates starting with the latest:

Posted 7 hours ago: “Okay day for Howie today. A lot of nerve pain from yesterday’s surgery but otherwise doing fine. Should be moving out of the ICU tonight to a step down unit. One step closer to getting out!

From 1 day ago: “Howie’s surgery went fine today. They were able to take care of his foot, ankle, and knee so he should be done with surgery for a few weeks – until they have to remove the external fixator from his ankle. Thankfully, he’s back off the ventilator and resting well. “

From 2 days ago: “Lots of improvement for Howie today … they were able to remove the neck brace and the feeding tube. PT came and got him sitting up in a chair for a while, then he actually got to have a real dinner. Still pretty out of it but definitely coming along. Surgery in the morning on his foot, ankle and leg. Thank you all for being so wonderful. We are truly blessed. “

From 3 days ago: “Today… Howie is finally off the ventilator. His breathing is good and, although he is very “loopy”, he is aware of what’s going on for the most part. Still dealing with a lot of pain and coming to terms with the extent of his injuries and the impact they will have on him for some time to come, but definitely an improvement.”

From 4 days ago: “Today’s Howie update… Dr. said surgery on his hand this afternoon was a success and he came through fine. If all goes well overnight the plan is to get him off the ventilator early tomorrow morning.

Okay sorry for the long post but even those not on Facebook should be caught up on Howie’s condition and what has been happening now. Please continue to keep Howie, Lisa, Jimmy and the rest of his family in your prayers!
