             Makayla had an appointment today and her aorta is 55% blocked by a tumor.  Praise God nothing has changed!  She goes back for more tests at the end of September.   Makayla and Kelly will not be travelling with us for now, per the specialist's orders as Makayla needs to be close to the specialist.   We look forward to when Kelly and Makayla can go back on the road.   Pray for Richard as he will be away from home so much with the busy schedule.

August 21, 2008

          It has been a whirlwind week singing in Maine, Ohio, and Vermont.  In each concert we saw God move.  The doctor allowed Makayla to travel with us and she attended her first Hyssong concert in Ohio.  However, she only lasted thirty minutes before becoming hungry.  In a couple days we will update you on Makayla's health.  We will be adding more pictures to the gallery soon, including one of the three of us.  

          Many have been asking about Richard's new radio program on 88.9 God's Country out of the state of Maine.  You can listen to it on Saturday from 2:00 PM - 6:00 PM on worshipradionetwork.org and click on Listen Live.  You will be inspired by the music as well as listen to Richard talk about The Hyssong's travels, personal experiences with other artists, and stories.  We know that you will be encouraged as you listen each week.

          Thank you for your prayers and concern about Makayla.  She has a scheduled test with the cardiologist next week.  At this point we have to wait until late September for more tests and an MRI.  They want to wait until she grows a little bigger.  After this we will see what further steps need to be taken.  The doctors are keeping a close eye on her until then.

          Our song, "God Is There", has hit the charts again for September and is climbing.  As you can imagine, that song has more meaning to Richard and Kelly than it ever has before.

          There are still spots available for both the cruise and Pigeon Forge.  For details, click on the above link, Upcoming Trips.

          Check out the updated schedule.  We look forward to seeing you in your area.

         Please keep Makayla in your prayers.  The doctors have found tumors in her heart and on Friday also found tumors in her brain.  Remember Makayla, as well as Richard and Kelly at this time.  More tests will be performed in the upcoming weeks.  Check out the gallery for more pictures of Makayla.

          Wow!  I can't believe it is May already.  Time really does fly.  In the last six weeks we have literally been all over the United States.  God has been blessing as we have seen several lives touched and changed through music.  It was also great to come home and see familiar faces of family and friends.

           Dell & Richard were invited to help with the Worship Radio Network's Spring Share-A-Thon.  It was a blessing to see all the support from people all over the world toward Christian radio.
