Fulfilling Our Commission

From Mike Tuttle (The Netherlands):
Please remember the Tuttle and McCoy families in prayer.

Wednesday February 13, 2008

1:46 PM, Port Arthur, Texas, Christus, St. Mary’s Hospital, Vera Grace Tuttle, (the daughter of Matthew & Michelle Tuttle, granddaughter of Michael & Dianna Tuttle, Missionaries to The Netherlands, and Darrel and Sherry McCoy, Pastor in Nederland, Texas) entered this life for a short two hour visit. Long enough to mesmerize those she met in her short, but precious life span. Even though she came and went in a few short moments, she captivated hearts and changed our lives forever. Our first child / grandchild to be placed tenderly into the hands of our loving God, we will never forget you Vera Grace Tuttle.

She was hardly gone long enough from her celestial home to be missed by the angelic hosts. She lives among the family of heaven. Thank you, Lord, for sharing her for the few minutes you gave her to us.

Praise Report
From Pam Smoak (Tanzania/Burundi):

Just wanted to thank you for the prayers and concern. I am doing well since arthroscopic knee surgery on Wednesday. I am walking with a walker, slowly and carefully, doing my PT exercises and resting in between.
