Dear Irene,

We are so saddened to hear of all you are having to withstand, yet gladdened by your assurance that God is standing with you in all of it.  Your courage in this trial is also your ministry to us.  Our love and prayers, Walt and Dee.

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, Who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
