Joe and Elaine’s Story

Site created on April 26, 2023

Welcome to our CaringBridge website at https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/joeandelainesjourney. Elaine and I are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your prayer support and words of hope and encouragement. 

As a combat arms officer I always asked for as much artillery as I could get to soften or destroy the target.  I view prayer as spiritual artillery that will prepare the way to and thru this upcoming brain surgery on June 16th.  Please share this link with any Bible studies, SS classes and prayer groups that might be willing to pray with us.  God has blessed us and walked with us every step of the way. Your prayer is so important and appreciated. 

Love in Christ, 
Joe

Journal entry by Joe Rodriguez

Dear family and friends,
I am so grateful for your prayers and support. I take nothing for granted. This June 16 th will be the one year anniversary of my brain surgery and next Monday I will start my 9th month of Chemo. I take chemo By pills 5 Days a month. I had some nausea the first two months but am now having sleep
Issues but I can deal With that. I am serving again as an elder of Standing Stone Bible Church and expectTo resume jail ministry soon. One of my
Elder Tasks is To find other outreach ministry opportunities in the community. I can do that! I’ve contacted several agencies and they all want us to provide Bible studies, prayer and musicFor
Their residents.  It is exciting to see God opening doors! So far these agencies are offering us access for volunteer activities:
1. Marquis Retirement Community
2. Hope Lodge offering lodging for long term
Cancer patients receiving treatment at local hospitals
3. Assure Women’s Center with several locations offering counseling and ultrasound for
Women Seeking To Terminate Pregnancy
4 Sarpy County Jail Men’s and Women’s Bible Studies
5. Lastly pray for open Doors To do CEF Good News Clubs for students in local Schools
To God be the
Glory
