"Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all of this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinquish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God." Ephesians 6:14-17

T-Minus 24 hours to Transplant...

The whole Waters family is gearing up for the big day tomorrow, it is hard to believe that we are in this place, but we are so aware of the peace and covering of the Lord on us during this time. There are a too many prayer request to list but we know that the Lord is aware of every detail and how everything is to work. Please just continue to pray over this significant event and that the Lord will give wisdom, insight and direction to all doctors, nurses, staff and family involved in this transplant and in the days and weeks to come.

To learn about the specifics of a Bone Marrow Transplant please go to the following link:

Jared is up for visitors but we are asking anyone who may want to come up that you air on the side of caution and if you have had or have been around anyone who has had a runny nose, cough or any sickness recently, please choose not to visit Jared at this time. He is HIGHLY susceptible to ANYTHING for the next while.

More updates to come tomorrow!

All our love and appreciation,
The Waters Family

Dear Waters and Hildebrands,

Even though we are hundreds of miles away, Ben and I have a team of 44 here in Mexico with us and our first mission of the day is to cover you all in prayer and believe to hear of an excellent report of what the Lord is going to do there as he has been faithful to prove Himself to you guys just as He has here in Mexico this week.
Jo, you know I love you girl! The gift you and little Aubrey get to give to Jared is priceless. I will be home soon to pamper you and buy you a big piece of chocolate cake from the Cheesecake Factory!
Jared, God is faithful....He has proven to be and we are standing with you and believing He will be even more right now.
Christina, I am in awe of your strength and love for you husband. You truly a treasure!
Mom and Pop Waters....We love you guys and are praying a new demension of strength to you both in this moment for your kiddos.
Justin, You are the man! Take good care of that family of yours! We love you!
Jess, okay girl, it is your turn to take care of your big sis....not going into details....but I think you owe her from your whole arm breaking.....Ha! Ha!
Okay,,,this was a little longer than expected, but I AM in Mexico and can't be there to hug each one of you...so this is the best I got right now!
Love you all deeply and praying earnestly!
