<div>Heartbreak leads to perseverance. Tragedy leads to character. Generosity leads to healing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>And now — with heartbreak and tragedy bearing down on our family — we humbly ask for your generosity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Meet our cousins, Raymond and Karen Vincent, proud parents of 6 beautiful children. On April 22, after a month of declining health and 26 weeks pregnant, Karen was admitted to the emergency room. What we thought was preeclampsia turned out to be something far more serious.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>First, the happy news: Doctors performed an emergency C-section when Karen’s condition became unstable, and we are overjoyed to tell you that Alexander Constantine Vincent was born healthy, despite being three months premature. He’ll have to stay in the NICU a few more months, which presents its own challenges, but he’s healthy and growing and we’re so grateful.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>However, after surgery, doctors performed CT scans to find the underlying cause of Karen’s condition and rapidly deteriorating health.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The scans revealed that Karen had Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer that had spread to her bones, liver, and brain. We were absolutely devastated by this news.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When your world turns upside down, you don’t really know where to turn. As Christians, the Vincent family turns to God. We know He is watching over them, and we know He has a plan for their family. But that path can be difficult to navigate, especially in the darkest times.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What do you do when one of your brightest moments — the birth of your son — turns into your darkest fears? What do you do when God challenges you in a way you never conceived of?
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Of course, you do whatever you can to meet the challenge. And that’s what they are doing.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Karen's next challenge was a brain bleed. After Doctors stabilized her, she was able to undergo her first round of chemotherapy last week. We’re praying for a miracle as we search for an effective form of treatment. We fully believe she will fight through this. She’s seen Alexander a few times. And, though the brain tumors have effected her vision, she promises she can see him clearly every time she holds him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This sweet family of 8 is confronting the most difficult period in their lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>So we are asking for any donations you may be able to spare. All funds will go directly to Karen and Alexander’s medical bills and to support the family while Raymond, who is self-employed, is out of work.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They are up against impossible odds. But we know that with your help, they will get through this with grace and dignity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With all our gratitude,
</div>
<div>The Vincent Family

Help Pregnant Mom with Stage 4 Breast Cancer

<div>There has been some developments with my illness. I have an inoperable brain stem tumor which has left me unable to use my hand and feet. I will find more information tomorrow and will keep yall updated. Please pray for me in my time of need. My body, mind, and soul have taken a beating. Thank you all in advance for your prayers and help. Yall each have made this easier and I appreciate that beyond words. 
</div>
<div>My Lymphoma treatment is nearing its end, I believe. I have two more rounds of a drug called Methotrexate. I am having this because they had found cancer in my kidneys. Its supposed to work to clear out anything that might be in my brain and will give me a better chance at things long term. I am hoping to be working again in about 6 to 8 weeks. Until then, every month is a struggle. I would very much appreciate any help if you can. If not, I love you all regardless!! I don't know what I would have done without the support I have already recieved, and I am so grateful. Thank you friends and family, even if we have not spoken recently I cherish all of my relationships, past and present.

More help needed with my cancer journey.

<div>In October of 2023, Every Woman a Theologian (our employer) received an anonymous prayer request at Verity Conference for a small boy who needed an adoptive family—little did we know that a year later, <em>we’d be the ones trying to fund his adoption and bring him home to be the missing child in our family.</em>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>When a volunteer brought us the prayer card for this little guy, weren’t sure we would even be able to find who wrote it out of the 500 attendees but God knew otherwise. After we reached out to every single person who attended Verity in 2023, we got in contact with his grandma who rescued him from a horrible situation and began the process helping him to heal. This child has fallen through the cracks in the system, but God placed him on our hearts.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Since we were kids, we have always both known we wanted to adopt someday and when we started dating, we knew from the beginning that adoption has been a way we deeply desire to grow our family. We believe it's an incredibly special, holy picture of the Gospel, as we are all part of the adopted family of God through Christ.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>We’ve always dreamed of having a big family and before our third child, Van, we had secondary infertility and many miscarriages. We didn't know if a big family would ever happen for us, but we were abundantly grateful for our three. However, we've both consistently felt like someone has been missing from our family—a missing piece to our puzzle.

<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your help would mean the world to us, as you partner with what God is doing in the life of this little one. By donating even $20, you’ll bring us closer to bringing him home. Another child can absolutely be provided for financially, emotionally, and physically by our family. However, much like most adoptive families, we don’t have $15,000 sitting around to fund the adoption process.

Love Knows No Bounds: Support Our Adoption

It wasn’t until my dad, Jim Kelly, heard the fire alarms blaring that he woke up to his house engulfed in flames. His house had been struck by lightening, ensuing a fire so fast the alarms barely had time to serve their purpose. After running out of the house with nothing but the clothes on his back, he watched as our family home, the porch he loved and spent most of his time on, and all their belongings, burn down to the frame. Not even the cars survived. The same house he spent power washing and replacing old stair steps just last weekend. The same house that has hosted community neighborhood food truck events and birthday celebrations for too many to count. The same house that had a place for whoever needed one, no questions asked. The same house that was home to my sister, whose bedroom he watched collapse to the first floor only moments after getting out. By some miracle, my sister thankfully had flown out of town that morning. Because of where the strike occurred, it’s likely she would not have survived it. Unfortunately, as firefighters arrived, the two family cats, Bailey (13) and Mocha (2), likely scattered to hide from the sound of blast, and were unable to be rescued. If you’re lucky enough to know my dad and sister, you know how unfair this is. If you know my dad, you know he is the most amazing man on the planet. He never hesitates to donate to any cause of someone in need or to help out a friend with a project. He is a gentle, kind man who believes that finding pennies is good luck from Heaven. He is a chef, always opening his home to bring people together around his favorite Italian recipe. He is a friend to everyone, and a chosen family member to many. He is now forced to let go of 10 years worth of blood, sweat, and tears that he has been putting into making this house his dream house, one coat of paint and renovation at a time. My sister is only a semester away from graduating from school. She has spent the last two years at the top of her class working 12-14 hour school days to master the special equipment required for her degree while still somehow finding time to work and volunteer. Now all her notes, supplies, and special equipment needed to finish her degree are left as a pile of ashes. In just the span of one year, she will now have had to undergo open heart surgery, push back her graduation date, rebuild her life, and worst of all: mourn the loss of her partner in crime and registered emotional support animal, Mocha Moo. Mocha and Bailey are greeted in Heaven by the family beagle, Oscar, whom we lost late last year. My family has seen enough tragedy now to last a lifetime, and they’re at a loss of how to move forward. My goal is to raise enough money to replace the basic necessities to live and hopefully make a small part of this tragic event easier. On behalf of my dad and sister, who are known for being two of the most generous, charitable, and dependable people to exist, I ask you to consider donating to help them rebuild their lives or sharing their story.

Home Struck by Lightning & Burned to the Ground

<div>Logan has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer that has spread to both his lungs. In keeping with his "brand" of general coolness and un-swaying positivity with a dash of stubbornness, he's determined to be "that guy" that beats this. In order for him to wage this war he's gonna need lots of financial support both for himself and his loving and attractive family.

<div>*Logan looking handsome and hopeful
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Logan is getting treatment at MUSC with guidance from MD Anderson in Houston. Because of Logan's otherwise good health and young age he has started Folfirinox Chemotherapy. The idea is that he takes a couple months of this and then he can go back to Houston to see if the tumors have shrunk enough to give him some new options. One of those options could be immunotherapy or some other such trial in the new year in Houston; Fingers crossed! For now, the bills are starting to trickle in and he is just at the beginning of what is going to be a long journey with no certain outcome.
</div>

</div>
<div>We're in this together.

<p>Our beloved friend and community member needs our assistance and support. Despite being fully vaccinated, Patrick unfortunately contracted the Delta variant of Covid, and has been hospitalized for the past two weeks. While he is expected to make a full recovery (thank you God!!), he has experienced significant loss of income from not being able to work during this long illness. He needs our help to pay for his rent and expenses and to make another repair on his beloved Red Rover. (Side note: If anyone has a reliable car that they are no longer in need of and would like to donate somewhere, that would be an incredible gift to him as he has been making near constant repairs on the Red Rover.) We are setting the goal for $3000 to pay for his rent and utilities for August and September and to help with his car repair bill and to provide a small cushion as it may take more time for him to get fully back on his feet. Any amount that you can contribute will help to defray the burden he now faces. Thank you.
</p>

Patrick Carr's Covid Recovery Fund

Dear friends and loved ones of Patrick Carr, <br />It is time for us to come together to support this man, who gives so much joy and love to all he encounters.  Whether it is saying a warm hello to a tired stranger or sitting with a dying person, Patrick gives his whole heart to whomever he meets. He never asks for help, nor does he complain about his circumstances; he simply soldiers on with a fierce determination to discover the next way that he might help someone. Patrick recently encountered a setback when his beloved burgundy SUV finally crossed the threshold of useful service and gained her wings. We as a community would like to help Patrick acquire his next ride, one that will carry him safely to work, the store, and of course his favorite place to go, church! Please donate as you can, all money will go towards the purchase of his car and any remaining funds will be donated to the church that Patrick so dearly loves.
