Evening of Light, and Horizon Community Church

Last Friday (5/18) RESCUE sang at an event called, Evening of Light and Vancouver First Church of God in Washington. It is a benefit concert for needy children that RESCUE has been involved with in the past and were very happy to support again. This years recipient is a 5 year-old girl named Kaitlin who was diagnosed with lymphoblastic leukemia a couple of years ago. Her first year of treatment cost $176,000 and the bills just keep coming in.

Kaitlin is a little singer! Her mom says she learned over 200 songs by the age of two. She has been in a very weakened state since the diagnosis and treatment began she has had to give up many of the things that children love to do, although her family has worked hard to keep her life as normal as possible. Her mother said, “After she was diagnosed, it was such sweet music to our ears, when after almost a month of not hearing her sweet voice sing, she started singing, 'It’s me, it’s me, it’s me O Lord, standing in the need of prayer.'”

We enjoyed sharing the stage with many great, God honoring, performers and we were glad to be a part of a special evening.

We also spent Sunday morning (5/20) with Horizon Community Church in Tualatin, Oregon.



We sang four songs in both of their services and really enjoyed the worship and the pastor's message on godly time management. With our busy schedules, that message came at a very good time!
