Support Patrick's Fight Against Bile Duct Cancer

Donation protected
Dear Friends and Family,

As Patrick's children, we are reaching out to you today with a heavy heart to share the news regarding his recent diagnosis of Bile Duct Cancer, also known as cholangiocarcinoma. This rare and aggressive form of cancer has shaken our family to its core, but we are determined to face it head-on with strength, hope, and love, and we believe in a miracle of complete recovery on his behalf.

Patrick has always been the backbone of our family (all eight of us children) and, of course, a gift to his wife, Rhonda, for the last 17 years. His selflessness and dedication has touched countless lives, not only within our family, but also by encouraging, mentoring, and building up pastors, leaders, and entrepreneurs and sharing his God-given gifts with others. Despite his own battles, Patrick has been a beacon of light, spreading positivity and inspiration through his international speaking engagements in churches across the globe.

However, this most recent diagnosis has forced Patrick to put his traveling schedule on hold as he focuses on his health & recovery. The journey ahead is going to be a long and arduous one, filled with frequent trips to MD Anderson in Houston, TX, from his home outside of Ft. Worth, TX, where he is currently receiving intensive chemotherapy treatments and upcoming surgery in the next few months. These treatments and the loss of income from canceling all future speaking engagements have placed a significant financial strain on Patrick & Rhonda.

That's why we are reaching out to our community for support. We humbly ask for your help in easing the burden on Patrick and Rhonda as they navigate this difficult time. Your generous donations will cover medical expenses, travel costs, and basic necessities, allowing Patrick to focus on his recovery from chemotherapy treatments and upcoming surgery without the added stress of financial worries.

Every contribution, no matter how big or small, will make a difference in Patrick's fight against cancer. Together, we can rally behind him, offering our love, prayers, and support every step of the way!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing by Patrick and our family during this challenging time. Your kindness and generosity mean more to us than words can express.

With gratitude,
The Ondreys, Andersons, Copelands, Keys, Hoovers, and Retherfords
