Dear Hancock Friends,

We have received the news that we had hoped and prayed for!  Nate's test results reveal no sign of cancer remaining, and his doctors have said that he is in remission, with no further treatment required. There is one final test, the results of which will not be known until next week, but there is complete confidence that he is restored to good health. By early spring he should be free of the lingering effects of the chemotherapy.

We are so grateful to so many people: his doctors and caregivers, his wonderful friends, our extended family, and you, our church family. You have been so kind, so understanding and gracious, and we shall always remember your kindness to us in this hour of need.  

And above all we give thanks to God, who walked steadfastly with us, and supplied us with hope and peace.  

Faithfully,

Paul and MaryAnn
