Hi, I'm Phillip Harms, a husband to Shelly and father to two wonderful kids. I work with church networks as a global partnerships and projects rep for a Bible translation organization in Orlando, Florida. I serve primarily in Asia and the Pacific regions of the world to assist the church in their effort to have God's Word in their mother tongue. I'm also an Army Veteran, aviator, and boardgame fanatic.

On June 21st, 2021, I will be undergoing a double mastectomy and will have a number of lymph nodes removed. The treatment after that will be determined by the number of lymph nodes positive for cancer but will most likely involve chemo and radiation for approximately six months. I know I'm in God's hands and am at peace with what needs to be done. I expect there will be challenges and so do my friends. Several have asked for me to create a way for them to contribute so here I am creating this page. 

I have already faced my first financial challenge. Knowing that surgery would be around the corner, I took my wife and daughter on a family vacation only to return to a failing AC and the smell of mold in my house. I just had a replacement unit put in by my good friend, Mike who was concerned that the mold would be problematic to my health and healing. Surely there will be more challenges though I don't currently know what they will be. I'm thankful to serve a mighty God, have a loving family, and great friends who desire for me to be restored to good health without the worry of how to take care of those what if's.

For those of you who wish to help, may the good Lord bless you abundantly. I thank you also for your prayers for my recovery.
