Relay for Life 2009Celebrate those that have survived Cancer and are cancer free at this time.
Remember those that lost their battle.
Fight Back for those who are currently battling cancer today.
HOPE! is available and the support of the community, families, churches and of the Cancer Society is giving people Hope for a Cure.
Our Church, Faith Baptist Church of Youngsville, NC had a team in the Relay as they do every year and our Team captain is a Survivor so it is extra special to spend 24 hours supporting and celebrating with her and her family. As any family or group our church family has been touched by Cancer in many lives too. We Remembered the ones that have passed away with Luminaries with their names on them and we are walking by Faith and Hoping for a cure here on earth but we have the gift of eternal life so we Celebrate that we WILL see our friends and loved ones again in Heaven someday. My family has reason to celebrate, I have two uncles who are battling cancer and are survivors. We remember several friends and my maternal grandmother, grandfather and Uncle who both lost their battles with cancer.
The Luminary Service... Time to Celebrate the survivors and to Remember those that lost their battle and to Encourage those battling Cancer today to FIGHT BACK, and FIGHT LIKE A GIRL!
The Effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. James 5:16
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen
Ephesians 3:20
