On November 17, Carmela had a stroke. Already her prognosis is looking amazing, but she will have a long road to recovery. Ezra will have to take a lot of time off work to care for her. Please help us alleviate this financial stress by giving what you can. Every little bit helps!

Carmela is not only the grandmother of 13 wonderful grandchildren, but she is also a long-time pianist and singer who has given her time to play worship at many, many churches throughout her life. She has also been a music teacher for many years and now enjoys giving piano lessons to her grandchildren. We hope she’ll recover her ability to worship the Lord through music again.

We understand that not everyone can give financially. There are lots of other ways you can help the family through this trying time, including:

Please feel free to reach out to Natasja or Michelle for other ideas.

Thank you so much for your prayers and support!

*Note that the beneficiary of this GoFundMe is Natasja, who will transfer all funds to Ezra*
