Please be in prayer for Kris Mayer, the mother of Melody, BVI's bookkeeper, who is also a freelance writer and copy editor for BVI. Kris has been diagnosed with cancer. They are not sure what stage it is, or whether it has spread to the lymph system. She is having an MRI on September 16, and is scheduled for surgery on October 7. At that time, they'll know whether she will undergo chemotherapy or radiation therapy. This has understandably also been a real blow to Melody, who is close to both of her parents.
