~ Update from Pastor Bryan ~ Learning pain management around my issue of spinal stenosis & nerve impingement is an exhausting challenge, but with God's help and my family's patience I am inching towards taking things moment-by-moment. I made another trip to the ER on Monday evening, June 23 getting meds to help with pain management. Whew! I am grateful to my colleague, Rev. Gray Clark for leading worship and preaching this coming Sunday, June 29. Gray will also officiate Janie Walters' Celebration of Life this Saturday, June 28 @ 2pm in the Centrum! Folks, THIS is what Presbytery looks like! Having good friends and Salem Presbytery colleagues making themselves available not only for me, but with YOU! I have two surgery consultations early next week to explore options for non-invasive AND surgical treatment. My aim is to take non-invasive options BEFORE even considering surgery of any kind. Feel free to contact me (by text first please @ 336.327.2041). Just lemme know when I can call you back. Blessings to each of you! |
