Relay For Life

My great friend Callie who I met in 7th grade has been an amazing support through this adventure that I am facing.  Recently she has signed her self up to be apart of an relay in the Relay For Life in her town on behalf of myself, and every time I have Chemo she is going to wear a pink shirt with a pink bow in support of me and breast cancer.  This is such an overwhelming act of love and kindness, and I am so grateful for it!  Here is the link to Callie's blog about her wearing pink and participating in the relay:

To participate in the relay she is suppose to raise 100$ to be part of her team, if you would like to participate follow the link on the right side of my blog that states "Support Callie and Jenifer in the Relay for Life."   You are all wonderful and I have gained much strength from you in my life, and especially at this time. 

Thanks Callie!

  1. Jen, We are so blessed to serve such an Awesome God. A God who loves, a God who saves, A God who heals. Psalm 18:2 says “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge: My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” I love what Psalm 31:1-3 says, “In You, O lord, I have taken refuge; Let me never be ashamed; In Your righteousness deliver me. Incline Your ear to me, rescue me quickly; Be to me a rock of strength, A stronghold to save me. For You are my rock and my fortress; For Your name's sake you will lead me and guide me.” A rock of strength ... a fortress, just to read those words, I feel loved by Him. God’s word is true ... He is a rock. He is unmovable, strong and a shelter in the middle of life’s changes and challenges. Jen, take comfort for you are a child of God and he holds you in the palm of His hand! God has carried me through some very dark days in my life and I know He’ll do the same for you! I am so thankful for your friendship despite the miles between us. I love you, my friend!! ~Callie
