PoP!!! www.portraitsofpraise2011.blogspot.com





















I am sooo excited about having another PoP session!!! I knew that once it got started that doors would open. This is such an awesome experience-- please tell your photographer friends about it and to contact a PoP representative at portraitsofpraise@rocketmail.com to see how to sign up!

Meet Courtney. She is a beautiful Senior from one of our local high schools. I happened to meet her mom at a softball tournament. We connected through FB and I started seeing all of her posts about Courtney on there. So at the next tournament I told her about PoP and how I would love for Courtney to be a part of this ministry. So through tears and a few texts we finally set it up.

I really am not sure of the details of Courtney's struggle. I know she was diagnosed at an early age with diabetes...but there is so much more to it now. She has really fought hard to be healthy the last 3 or 4 years. Since I have met them in May, Courtney has been in ICU several times and even tranferred by ambulance all the way across our state to try to get better. She has many geneticists studying her history trying to get a diagnosis- or possibly create one based on Courtney.

But despite all of the obstacles, she is a straight A student and a true joy to be around!! I enjoyed every single minute with her... and as evidenced by her portraits- I believe she had a good time too!!

It is truly an honor to be part of this ministry. These guys and girls inspire me and strengthen my faith. Their parents would move Heaven and Earth (and have) for them and covet any and all prayers they can get for their child.

So PLEASE remember Courtney in your prayers. She needs to stay healthy and prepare to go on to college. She needs encouragement and guidance as she makes some big decisions for her future. Pray for her family as well. Having a sick child truly takes it's toll on everyone. It is heart breaking. So please... thank God for this family and lift them up daily.

Also remember James Christopher. He is New York right now and will have a bone marrow biopsy tomorrow. Our prayer is that he is doing far better than they even anticipate. Please lift up his family as well- and pray for safety on this trip.

THANK YOU for keeping up with PoP! I can see from the stats that over 100 people have checked in just TODAY!!!! That is such a testament of what God can do!!
