Go Bald for a Cause!!

One of our college students who went through the high school ministry at our church was recently diagnosed with Leukemia. He has started treatments of chemotherapy and will likely lose his hair. Several leaders in our high school ministry, along with a couple students, decided to shave their heads so that Adam would not be alone in being bald. We also asked people to donate money for the family, as they are having to go down to Chicago to visit him. We raised $1000 for the Frank family, so that was so encouraging! God is good!
Last night was our leader's appreciation and there was a 70s theme. Dan wore an afro for most of the night in preparation for going bald! This morning when the boys woke up, Dan put on the afro. The boys were both scared of Daddy and weren't sure what to think. When he took off the wig, they were still unsure of him. Finally, when he put on a hat, they realized it was Daddy! Isaac said that he doesn't like Dan bald and wondered where all his hair went!! We told him that it will grow back :)

One of the students had her name drawn to shave Dan's head!

He still looks handsome to me :)
