Joe got a call from one of his uncles last night. This uncle of his has recently been diagnosed with cancer in the neck. Good news is the the cancer has not spread and it has been contained in the neck area. He will be starting chemotherapy shortly. Bad news is that he won't be able to come to the wedding with the chemotherapy sessions and doctors' appointments. He is trying to convince his wife to bring the kids to the wedding. Joe understands that his uncle and his family are going through a tough time, and Joe also understands that his aunt and the kids would probably prefer to stay with his uncle and offer support during this time. We have been praying for Joe's uncle and his family and we pray that God would grant them courage and strength to face all the challenges ahead of them.
We had originally invited Joe's cousin, Jason to be one of the two scripture readers, and it looks like Jason would probably not be able to make it. At this time, Joe and I will need to find another person to do the second scripture reading. Hmm... is it ok if the Bride does the reading? I don't mind... and I kind of wanted to.... now I just need to convince Joe to let me do it!
