Update: Beloved Arty has gone home to be with Jesus. If you feel led, this link is still open to assist his parents with any remaining expenses that we don’t want them to worry about. Please keep the entire Auvil family in your prayers as they try to catch a breath.

On the evening of June 3rd, my dear friends Joe and Megan Auvil experienced the most terrifying moment of their lives when their 5 week old sweetie “Arty” was suddenly struggling to stay conscious and was rushed away via ambulance. Upon further examination, he was airlifted to Springfield where he received 2 surgeries to address the infection discovered in his intestines. He is now being relocated to STL where he has a long road of healing and therapy ahead.

Joe and Megan are some of the best people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. They are the hands and feet of Jesus in our community. Please rally around our beloved friends and consider donating to help offset some of their upcoming medical and travel expenses.

Foremost, we rely on the Lord to provide healing. Secondly, we pull together as a family of believers to pray fervently and assist with the logistics as we can.
