Thank you to our church family for the love and support our whole family has received prior to and since the birth of Alex and Marshall’s daughter, Emery. Alex was discharged from the hospital on Tuesday afternoon and is doing well. Many of you have asked what the family could use especially while they are commuting back and forth to the hospital daily. A list of gift cards and baby items has been created for those who would like to help support them during this time. – Edgar and Brenda Davis
