He was suffering from cardiomyopathy. It is a heart disease which is often terminal. He was only 17 years old. His mother said he had 6-9 months to live. The problem was, that he had a troubled past and doctors were concerned about how he and his family wouldn’t comply with the strict plan for medication and follow up treatments. His story made the news, and as a result, his name was put on the list, and in 2013, he was given a new heart on Aug. 21, 2013. Unfortunately, the new heart did not translate into a new start. He was arrested twice since the surgery, and on April 2 he stole a car and refused to stop for police. He crashed the car into a sign killing him. Not everyone is given a second chance at a new life- or are they? Isn’t that precisely what becoming a Christian is all about? Jesus offers us the opportunity to have a second chance, and a third, and a million more chances if we trust in his grace. Let’s not ever mess it up- for the world. It was great to be back home and in worship Sunday. I appreciate your thoughts and prayers. Though I enjoy going to church on vacation, there really is no place like home. - Rick Serving Our Savior Early Service 2nd SERVICE Greeters: Greeters: 4/26: Jeff & Amy Smith 4/26: Steve & Julianne Hamilton 5/3: Billy & Shana Stevenson 5/3: Paul & Marlene Riddle Serving: Leader for Worship: D.
