Jim Ritter (Pastor at Watsontown Baptist Church, Northumberland Association)
On Tuesday (4/28), I will be having knee surgery...again. The healing from the first surgery did not go as planned (long story - please don't ask); and a corrective surgery is very much needed. Following this, I will be at my dad's for..."a while" (could be 4 weeks or so). Dad has a one level ranch, and this will be the best place for me to recover. Prayers for the surgeon, the anes....anesthes... the "gas passer", the nurses, me, Mary, the daughters, Dad, the meds, recovery time, and all etceteras are and will be VERY much appreciated!
