My favorite Dr. came in a couple of minutes ago and said, "he's doing pretty well."
That was a blessing to us. Yes we know there are all sorts of issues ahead, and that things aren't perfect, but to have the ECMO Dr. tell you that, and that the complications he's experiencing are expected, is a real blessing! It will help us rest a little easier tonight!
I lift up Praise to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, for the legion of brothers and sisters here and around the world who are holding us up. Truly, the peace of Christ passes all understanding.
There are several sisters in Christ who are wearing nurse uniforms at St. Vincent's Hospital who have overwhelmed us with the Lord's love, support, and encouragement. They laugh with us, cry with us, and check on us to make sure we are coping. It is no accident that they are here. They are true to their calling, their ministry. It is no coincidence that we are here. Isn't God AMAZING?! Jesus is so cool!

I'm so glad to hear about how BJ is doing. I am constantly praying for BJ and all of you. Praise be to God, He is our everpresent help in trouble. BJ's and your family's testimony during this whole situation has been such a challenge to me for how I should live my life in faith and service to God. I love you all!

I know bj's mom's cousin veeann schmidt because she was my eighth grade history teacher. The other day she came by the coffee place I work at and she knew that I was a christian and she asked me to pray for bj. well, I found the website and I wanted to let you know that now I am constantly praying for bj. mrs. schmidt told me that bj wanted to be a missionary. i also want to be a missionary and i have so much respect for bj for already choosing that at this age. you all are in my prayers.

Heard about BJ from Walker. Praying for you all to be surrounded by the love of Jesus & that He will be glorified. BJ is touching many lives through this.
Glortificamos a Dios por este dia, porque Dios esta en control de todo, En los dos servicios de la Iglesia hemos glorificado a Dios y hemos pedido que la obra que el haga en BJ, sea agradable y Perfecta, Muchas bendiciones y oramos para que esta noche el cuerpo de BJ se fortalezca y mañana tenga un nuevo amanecer en el Poder de nuestro Dios.
Muchas Bendiciones y que Dios les de el descanzo esta Noche.

God, Thank you once again for your faithfulness. Please grant this family much needed rest and peace throughout the night. Thank you for the nurses that Brent has mentioned.We praise you alone for working out every detail of this situation. We look forward to BJ's full recovery and know he will be pleased to know that this event has brought unity among the believers and a testimony to many who don't know you. Thank you Father for all you have done and continue to do.
We love you.

St. Vincent's is a wonderful hospital! An old youth leader or mine's husband works there and he wouldn't if it weren't a really cool hospital. :) Jesus is amazing, cool, and everything else wonderful. Thank you Lord for the improvements in BJ.

God I pray that tonight you will continue to heal BJ's body. I pray that the heart rate will return to normal and that the kidneys will begin to function again. Guide the surgeons' hands as they fix the veins because with your guidance we know the chances are no longer 50% but instead 100% of them working properly again. Continue to comfort his family.

I saw your blog on the MercyMe website and I've been praying for over a week. I did missions in Venezuela this summer for 7 weeks and I know that it could easily be me where BJ is. I don't know you all but you're in my prayers. Dios te bendiga!

Hi, I'm from Hannibal-LaGrange College and I heard about BJ from my roomate, Michelle Baumgardner. I just want you to know that I and my church have began to pray for BJ. I continue to hear the updates from everyone on campus and also pass them along to my church family and friends. We are all here for you.

I learned about B.J. today from a pastor that was visiting our church. I just wanted to tell you that he is in my heart and my prayers and that I have asked my family to pray for him and you all as well. He can move mountains ... through the healing blood of Jesus Christ, may He heal B.J. God speed.

Brent & Deanna,
Yes, Jesus is cool! And amazing and any other adjective you can think of! Just wanted to check on BJ one last time tonight before starting my homeschooling tasks. I really pray that you and Deanna can rest well tonight, you certainly deserve it! Will keep praying that BJ stays stable, gains strength, and things start to normalize in his body. I am glad you have a good support system there with the nurses. That's why most nurses go into the profession, they have a servant's heart, I should know! Have a quiet and restful evening. God Bless!
Love, Nancy
Praise God, Prayers still with you all! Hope you guys can rest a little better at night. Amen!

My name is Lauren Brown, and I live in Chapel Hill, NC. Erin Freemyer, who went to Peru with BJ, told me about him. I have found great encouragement in your family's faith even in the midst of such a difficult trial. Many people are interceding on your behalf, and I am one of them. I continue to hope for BJ's recovery. May God continue to give you peace, comfort, and strength.
Tonight I am thanking God for His providence, provision, unfailing love, and faithfulness. I will be praying for all of you continually and praising our gracious Father for all He has done. We are so very grateful. I just wanted to check the website one more time before heading off to bed and to read more good news just blesses my socks off!!! Thank You Sweet Jesus!!!
I can't even imagine the hardships that you are going through. God is AWESOME, just stay close to him. I will continue to keep praying for BJ. May God truly bless you throughout this time.

Like i said before your a tremendous blessing and example to all of us. I know things happen in people's lives for a reason and that reason is We don't know why they just happen. Tonight we pray for the complete restoration of BJ's body. We ask in Jesus' name that he be healed completely and quickly. Thank you oh Lord for everything that you have done for us. For sending your Holy Son to this earth, for being in America and being able to pray freely for our brother in christ, that is awesome. I pray tonight that all yall have a peaceful night.

Sleep well in the comforting arms of Jesus. His love and tender care of us is amazing! God grant BJ an incredibly comforting night of rest.
You all are incredibly precious to Him, that He is longing to gather you into His arms of comfort and restoration.

My prayers are offered for BJ throughout the day. What a testimony he is for our Lord even as he lies in his hospital bed. May God give each of you a good day with positive results in each procedure.
Brent and Deanna: Just want you to know how much we appreciate little BJ (as we remember him)and what he has meant and is meaning to people all over the world. Lauren and you have been so masterful, reassuring and couragious in your updates. Our Sunday School Class had special prayer for BJ at about 9:10 yesterday morning.

I just wrote, sorry I forgot to say I'm from San Diego, CA - I'd love to see the results of your mapping efforts one of these days.
I had sunstroke and heatstroke when I was a Freshman in HS while preparing for a missions trip. The Drs. said I would have nerve damage, brain damage or die, but God COMPLETELY healed me! I wasn't suppose to be able to have children and I just had my second this last July. I am 30 and doing very well. There is hope for BJ! I will continue to pray!!! I just wrote him in my prayer notebook! He is first on this page! - Nicole, San Diego, CA
