We Miss You, Mom

Don’t lose someone you love to breast cancer.
Help find the cause of breast cancer by joining Army of Women.

Helping Emmy walk

My mom’s last walk with Lily, my sister, and Emmy.
She died less than three months later.
Her fight with breast cancer ended on Nov. 23, 2009.

“The key to ending breast cancer is to learn how to stop it before it starts.” ~Dr. Susan Love

Christ the King

Crown him with many crowns, 
The Lamb upon his throne;
Hark, how the heav’nly anthem drowns
All music but its own.
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of him who died for thee,
And hail him as thy matchless king
Through all eternity.
NIKA is from the Greek for Victory;
IC XC is a common Greek abbreviation for Jesus Christ.

“Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”

The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 15:55-57

Verse 1 of  “Crown Him with Many Crowns” from the Lutheran Book of Worship.
