We are so grateful for our Zion Congregation family, and for all the prayers lifted
 up, and for all the prayer warriors. Recently, George and I both received steroid 
        injections into lumbar lower back area nerves.  We don’t know how long they will 
        last, but keep those prayers of gratitude, healing and hope going. Right now, we 
        are nearly pain free and standing up straight!  We’ve missed you all so often, but 
        we’ll be back more often now.  For Him who is able, thank you Lord! 
                                                                                                Carol and George Kline
