Dear Mr. Wendland and Family: you don’t know us, because we are distance members of Our Redeemer, living in Columbus, Wisconsin. ORLS helped us to raise our children in Jesus. ORLC is still our HOME church. I came to my CB acct today for a different reason, and found that you had new journal entries since I was last able to check in. PRAISE GOD IN HIS MIGHTY TEMPLE for each breath and each heartbeat that HE has granted into this new year. We were very thankful that He led you to continue in His service at ORLS as your name and reputation precede you on the call list. May He continue to grant you and your precious family faith, strength, hope, peace, comfort, and JOY for all the days that you have left to testify to His power and grace❤️✝️🙏

Praise God! Prayers continue for you for these next 6 six weeks and throughout the year!

Such amazing news! I will continue to keep you and your precious family in my prayers!

14 For this reason I kneel before the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,[b] 15 from whom the entire family in heaven and on earth receives its name. 16 I pray that, according to the riches of his glory, he would strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner self, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. Then, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 I pray that you would be able to comprehend, along with all the saints, how wide and long and high and deep his love is, 19 and that you would be able to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled to all the fullness of God.

20 Now to him, who is able, according to the power that is at work within us, to do infinitely more than we can ask or imagine, 21 to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen.

Thank you for this update, David. Know that your arrival to this point is an answer to many, many prayers, and we are all celebrating God's amazing grace with you! Peace

Wonderful news David! Continued prayers to you!
