Prayers for the Hammitt Family

Please be in prayer for Matt Hammitt (Sanctus Real) and his wife Sarah.  They are expecting their third child and recently found out during a sonogram that their baby boy, Bowen,  has a rare and very serious heart condition called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. 

You can follow the Hammit family's journey on their blog: http://bowensheart.wordpress.com/.

And, if you have a story or testimony involving Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome or other serious heart defects, they'd love to hear from you.  You can email Matt and Sarah at Helpourheart@gmail.com .

Aqua Notes

This is a great idea for folks like me who do their best thinking in the shower.  Here's the product description from their website:

"The shower has long been held as the best place to spark ideas and creative inspiration. But it’s always been a challenge to remember shower ideas, and writing in water is a struggle. That is until now!  AquaNotes® is a waterproof notepad that allows you to record your great ideas while you're in the shower. It's so durable you can even write underwater. They're recyclable, environmentally friendly, and the notepad is printed with soy-based ink."
