Some are faced with harrowing thoughts of mortality young in their lifetimes. Our dear friend, Joel, was recently given devastating news of esophageal cancer. He is a young man, with an incredible entrepreneurial spirit. He is the father of three lovable children, and the husband to a ROCK of a woman.

Joel, along with his wife, April, are facing this diagnosis with enormous courage and grace. They will soon launch a blog called www.peighitforward.com (as in Peigh It Forward) so that their friends and family can travel along this journey with them…providing encouragement and strength during the times they need it the most.

We ask that you keep Joel in your prayers as he fights the fight of his life.
