Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting. I have had many friends and family who have gone through health challenges but never realizing I would be the one sharing my story in a context such as this. When Chris and I married in 1984, we agreed to be together for better or worse, in sickness and in health. At times it seems like I've&nbsp; brought the sickness and worse part to the marriage.&nbsp; Through heart issues, diabetes, and now cancer Chris and our family have been awesome. I&nbsp; recently have been following a calling from God to go into full time ministry with Man in the Mirror as an Area Director in WI.&nbsp; While not full time&nbsp; yet, I am working at building ministry partners.&nbsp; My goal is still to make it to boot camp this fall even through this set back. For more information&nbsp; about becoming a partner please go to www.maninthemirror.org/algilanyi. My hope continues to be in the God of my salvation through whom I've been saved.&nbsp; Nothing about this condition has surprised God as He knows the beginning from the end. I trust in Him through it all. My hope is that you would trust in Him too.
