[Wonder why blogging has been slow? I spent the weekend in Redding, CA with some very special people.]
I am ending my trip to Redding, CA after sitting in airports waiting for fog to lift to get back home and even experiencing an airport terminal evacuation. Travel this week was about friends. I was able to spend most of my time at the Miller’s home and enjoy them while showing support as well. Randy and Kristyn are truly an inspiration. Randy is a family man, concrete contractor and guy in the church worship team who ended up in a cutting edge band (The Myriad) touring the US and on MTV! His battle with cancer is just beginning, but being the toughest dude I know and a person of faith I see God healing him. That, and the thousands praying for him add to an amazing story of God’s grace and the best of Christianity being expressed. (more…)

Those who already follow The Myriad or who are friends and family with Randy Miller have most likely already heard the sad news that Randy had surgery to remove a tumor on his torso and was found to have cancer. Randy and Kristyn are amazing friends. This picture was the last time I got to play music with Randy on my farewell worship service at Neighborhood Church in Redding. My friends who served on that worship team with Randy know how much of an inspiration he is and how wonderful his family is. Tammy and I are asking you to please pray for him and his family as he has immediate financial needs.
**Update (11/2/08) The name of the cancer is chondrasarcoma. Stage is unknown at this time. Pray for this to be lower stage. One scary thing is they said is it is possible that amputation of shoulder and arm may be needed. Please continue to pray.
Two ways to help: His current church The Stirring has setup a way to give on their website. All you have to do is sign up at this link where you will see a Randy Miller fund set up. Obviously, prayer is very important, too. So, please keep him and his family in your prayers. The diagnosis had to be sent to Harvard since it is a rare form of cancer. Pray for their physical, material and emotional needs to be met and for God’s healing.
If you are in with me on this, please leave a note here and I will pass on the encourgement to Randy!
