North Valley Baptist Church

Eagle, ID
Pastor Jason Herring

On Saturday night and Sunday morning we were very privileged to be with the Herring family. Sadly, we arrived just a week after the burial of their 4 year old son, Josiah. Josiah was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor only a few short weeks ago and went to heaven while in Florida on a "Make a Wish" trip to Disney World. We were so moved by the stories of little Josiah's faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and his brave look toward his eternal home. We were even more encouraged by the strength displayed by Pastor Herring, his dear wife Suzy, and little "J-bo." The Lord is showing Himself so true and faithful through this amazing family and we felt so privileged to try to be a blessing to them for a short time, even though they ended up being more of help to us by their sterling testimony through such a difficult situation. Please pray for the Herrings that God will continue to work His perfect will through their lives and influence.

North Valley is still a young church and they meet in the gym of a local charter school. Please pray that God provides a permanant facility for this kind group of people to meet as a local New Testament church.
