We have our entire family home for the Christmas holidays with all eighteen of us, including the eight grandchildren all under six years of age. We are so blessed as a family and so enjoy being together as family with our children, their spouses, and grandchildren. Patty will be going to see the chiropractor on Monday, Dec. 29, to see if they can help her with the back pain that she has had for six months. I spent a night at the Meijer Heart Center on Monday, Dec. 22, because my heart went into a serious irregular heart beat again. I had a petscan that morning in Lansing and that procedure could have set my heart into a frenzy. My heart would beat as fast as 200 beats a minute and then back to normal. The cardiologist thinks that changing the prednisone to 40 mg. a day from 80 mg. may have triggered this recent problem. They were able to get my heart back to normal and because of the holidays released me sooner than expected. I was so glad to get home for the holidays after being fearful that I would spend Christmas in the hospital. The journey with sarcoidosis has been a challenging time but we are thankful for the spiritual lessons that God is teaching us through my illness. Thank you for your prayer support and we do appreciate the many words of encouragement.

Hello Paster and Mrs. Currie!
I just looked at your blog, and first wanted to tell you what a beautiful family you have! It was fun for me to look at all the babies and match them with the kids I used to know. Growing up is fun! I also wanted to tell you that I will be praying for you and your family and for your health isuues. I, too was diagnosed with sarcoid, back in 2002. It never left my lungs and has been dormant since. Anyway, I was sorry to read that you two have been having health issues. You are in my pryers!

Dear Pastor Dan,
Just want you to know that you are being prayed for. I just read a book when I was in Florida, one I picked up at the airport to read on the plane, it was called "The Shack" and was a tale of suffering and then spiritual healing. It made me realize that we have no way to measure God's love for us, yes, in this life we all will go through some types of suffering but God is always there to give us exactly what we need to see us through. Praying for you,
Mary Hodges
