[Ohio-talk] Checking On Everybody

Wed Jul 25 18:48:38 UTC 2012

Hi everyone,
JW, thanks for the "thinking of you" email. It's great to see that people care! :)
I will be going to the LCB adult program here in a few months. I'm really nervous and excited, and I think I'll get a lot out of it though! :)
Prayer request: My close friend from Texas and his parents are trying to find jobs and further their education. Thanks!
Hope everyone is doing well! :)
Macy
