Tuesday passed away January 30, 2009! Please keep this family in your prayers, I know they are in mine! Loosing a child has got to be worst pain anyone can feel!! I know that we serve a Mighty God, that is able to wrap his arms of Love around this family and show them peace beyond anything they can think or imagine...Please pray for this family!!
Note: The "Pray for Tuesday on Tuesday" button mentioned below has been removed (the family removed it from their blog), however, the family's blog is under the "Pray For" section on my side bar, click on "The Whitt Family" to read Tuesday's story.
ORIGINAL POST:
We here at OffiSource are ready to get started with the 2009 Relay for Life event. This year our team will be dedicated to Sydney Duckworth; a three year old girl in our area. She is currently undergoing treatment for a brain tumor.
This event is also very near to my heart for another reason as well. I had a dear friend, Melanie Webster, pass away due to a brain tumor and I miss her very much.
Also, if you notice on my side bar there is a button that says Pray for Tuesday on Tuesday! I haven't been following this blog, however, I thought it was fitting that "Steece's Pieces" posted about her today when I was about to post my efforts for Relay for Life. I would like to raise money in honor of her as well. I have set a goal for myself to raise $200 for the American Cancer Society in honor of these 3 people. I hope to surpass this. Maybe with your help I can. Please take a minute to click on the link and donate any amount that you can. All money donated will go to the American Cancer Society.
To donate to the American Cancer Society and help me reach my goal of $200 please click My Relay for Life Web Page
This year, hundreds of thousands of people will hear the words "You have cancer", and there's a good chance that some of them will be people we know and love. We have all been touched by cancer in some way. However, we all have the power to make a difference. I want to invite you to join me in the fight against cancer by making a donation in support of my efforts. Please click on my personal Relay For Life® web page where you can make an online contribution. Every amount, no matter how small, makes a difference and provides hope.
Relay For Life® brings more than 3.5 million people from across the country together each year to celebrate the lives of those who have battled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fight back against a disease that takes too much. This fun-filled, overnight event empowers everyone to help fight cancer by raising money and awareness to support the American Cancer Society's lifesaving mission.
Thank you in advance for your support. Together, we will celebrate, remember, and fight back.

**Note: OffiSource, Inc. collectively is raising money for the relay for life, in our area, for the American Cancer Society in Honor of Sidney Duckworth. For the purpose of our Jackson Relay for Life we are the "OffiSource - Sidney Duckworth Team". As a team, OffiSource has a goal of $4,000. I personally would like to honor Melanie and Tuesday with my contributions as well as Sydney and ask everyone to pray for all families affected by cancer. **
