  1. John Miller: It is the end of the day on Friday in Germany and my therapies for the day are done. I had my second hyperthermia on Tuesday and my first Apheresis treatment (blood filtering) yesterday. I have my strength, clarity of mind and better self-back. I have therapies through Wednesday of next week and then we plan to fly back on Thursday. Tomorrow, we go to church in Salzburg, Austria where I plan to give the sermon. Thank you for your prayers. It has been amazing. If you want more details, you can email one of us and we will give you a link to our blog.
  2. Nancy Perich: (Youngstown) – Nancy is improving and in stable condition. However, she is still having a little confusion.

They also noted that Nancy should make a full recovery. At this time, Nancy is still in the ICU. She should be moved to a regular room soon.

  8. Troyer’s Hollow Campout: Mark your calendars for the Annual Troyer’s Hollow Campout June 21-23, 2024! Nestled in the scenic hills of Amish Country near Charm, Ohio, Troyer’s Hollow in the Doughty Valley, it has a long tradition within the local community and the church as a relaxing retreat. A beautiful creek winds through the secluded canyon hollow where we will camp. We have the entire property for two days, and one side on Sunday. Activities planned include a Friday evening Bible Study (8:00 PM), Potluck at Noon, Sabbath Services (2:00 PM), kettle popcorn over the fire, and many campfire discussions.

The campground has covered pavilions with a small kitchen, nicely maintained bathrooms, and shower facilities.  Tent camping is most popular, though there are a few RV/Camper sites.  There are also hotels in the area for brethren who are non-campers.  Please contact Mary Miller or Susan Miller to make your reservations, especially for RVs and campers. 

Please plan to provide your own meals and drinks, aside from the Sabbath Potluck where everyone shares in providing and enjoying the meal with abundance. Don’t forget your camping chairs.

Cost: by donation (a donation box will be available) –

Arrival Time: Friday, June 21 after 3 PM - Departure: Sunday, June 23 by 2 PM

Nearby hotels are available for those who do not wish to camp. Alcohol is prohibited on the property.
