Pastor Bill was weaned from the ventilator today for about an hour, which was 30 minutes more than the last attempt. We'll take that as an encouraging sign. They did put him back on and he is still sedated.
The prayers of God's people are deeply appreciated.

For Ruth,
Many prayers are being said for you as you stand quietly by and care for your long life partner. May God fill you with His peace and with wisdom that comes from His Holy Spirit. My heart breaks for you and for Pastor Bill while you go through this challenge. But as I read this morning in a study concerning Psalm 23:4, the word THROUGH indicates that there is another side and you will reach it in God's own time. I will continue to pray for you while crossing this valley. May you soon be THROUGH it.

Sometimes we have to take "baby
steps" in life, and this seems to
be such a time in Pastor Bill's
life. But look how much has been
gained with this last step of being
off the ventilator an additional 30
minutes !! God is sooo good.
Next step, the feeding tube to be
used to supply the nourishment for
his body...another "baby step" on
this incredible journey.

To dear pastor Bill & Ruth,
We have known Keswick as our heaven on earth for many years!
We treasure each one of the
Keswick family. You both have been
the foundation & corner stone for all of us!! The Sefcik family have always looked forward to our visits to Keswick. That's been 27yrs now!! We look to our Lord & Saviour to give you both the strength you need thru this trying time. You are in our prayers!
We love you!

Dear Raws family,
Each time I pray for Pastor Bill and you all I am reminded of many ways he has blessed me through his kindness and encouragement. I am praying for God to restore him completely, and for strength, wisdom and peace for each of you.
Blessings, Diane Hunt
Checking in and continuing to pray.
I am just up the road from you. I am speaking at the New York City Conference at Hofstra University, Long Island. (Chinese Conference)
Look forward to seeing the Raws and all Keswick family next month.(DV)
Still praying for pastor Bill.
I agree, small step today, but a good sign.
