Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas to all of our friends and family.  Colton and I are grateful that we are so loved, so prayed for, and so supported through this first Christmas without our dear Ryan.  I have had so many Facebook messages, texts, and cards this year - it never ceases to amaze me how the body of Christ pulls through for us when we need it most!

I am so thankful that the same savior that has given me the grace to persevere through the most difficult year of my life, chose to take on human form and was born 2000 years ago with the loving intention of dying for my sin.  I am also grateful that my husband intimately knew that same savior and as I type this, is celebrating Christ's birth, work, and resurrection in Heaven.  No more pain, no more cancer.  Thank you, Jesus, for the hope and healing that we have in you.

And though our hearts ache for what we lost...



...we continue to focus on what the Lord has graciously given us: each other, a loving circle of family and friends, and His own precious Son.

Merry Christmas from the Prudhomme family!  May the peace of Christ remain in your heart as we begin a new year.

Blessed are those who have not seen but believe; they will inherit the kingdom of God. Ryan exemplified a true believer and his legacy will live on
God bless you and Colton.
