My father died, unexpectedly, Sunday a.m. He and my mom were married for 53 years and have lived with our family for over ten years. Please pray for all of us as we grieve his loss.


In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the ABBA Fund- earmark your donations for the Walter Horton fund.

We are setting up a Grandpa Horton "zipper" fund to offer perpetual adoption loans for families adopting "heart babies" from China. My father had open-heart surgery in 1996, and he and Sarah Mei often "discussed" their matching zippers from surgery.

We know we serve a good and sovereign God who is holding us all in His hands.
