Dear Loving EChurch Family,

I will never stop loving people. I will never stop telling people they are
loving. I will never stop calling people that I love, Loving. No matter
what anyone says. If God tells me to stop, then I will. He has told me to
continue to always love and to give the love He so freely gives us.

Now for my prayer request.

Sunday night, I had just gotten into bed, and I realized I needed to call
my brother Harvey to wish him a Happy Birthday. This was on the 29th of
August. I told Vernon this, and I got up and went down stairs to my BNS and
called the number.

At first, I got the answering machine, and It was interrupted by his
"signifficant Other" Debbie.

I talked to her, and asked her if I could talk to Harvey. She told me he
wasn't there. Then she told me that he was in "finishing school." I didn't
quite understand that, so I inquired as to what she ment. She then told me
he was in jail. She made me promise her that I would not tell Mom that she
told me. I guess Mom doesn't want anyone in the family except Joe to know
where Harvey is. I don't understand why she always protecks Harvey. She use
to do this with Ron, also.

I promissed Debbie that I would not say anything to Mom about what she told
me. We talked for over 2 hours.

It all boils down to the fact that Harvey has had another  D.W.I. again. I
don't know how many of them he has had.

I also found out from Debbie that Mom has had some health issues lately.
She's having problems breathing. I told Debbie that I've heard Mom wheese
before and I had mentioned it to my older sister, Sherilyn.

Debbie informed me that Mom was scared one night, when she couldn't hardly
breathe. She was ready to call an ambulance but she didn't. I guess she
went to the doctor, and she has since quit smoking. They exrayed her lungs
and nothing shows up and they are clear.

Debbie told me that Mom probably has C.O.P.D. Debbie is a nurse.

This was also something Mom doesn't want anyone in the family to know
about. I assured Debbie that I would not say anything about it to her.

Please pray that when I call Mom that she is doing much better, and please
pray we don't have any problems. I will not call her loving, and I will not
tell her she is Loving, unless God tells me to.

I do love her a bunch, and I am really worried about her. I'm also
concerned about what she has told the family about our little spat.

Please pray that everything is okay. Please pray for Harvey. He was suppose
to get out, but they are afraide he will not show up at the trial.

Please pray that my family gets closer and that they come to know The Lord.

Thanks for your love and prayers.

Love and Blessings,
Pat Ferguson
