It's a big wow.

Bloggy friends...

I want to share an amazing story and a prayer request with you today.

Meet Matt.
Connie's "nephew-in-law".
He's 24 years old.
Newlywed.
Matt has had kidney damage since he was seven.
Has been on dialysis for four years.
Now going three times a week.
Needs a kidney to live.
To LIVE.
Enter Kelley.
Married to man that owns a cheer gym where Matt recently started coaching.
Kelly met Matt at a dinner party.
Just a few months ago.
Heard his story.
Had a feeling.
Knew she was a match.
Got tested.
One week after she met him.
But didn't tell Matt she was being tested.
Until she found out
That she is a perfect match.
Perfect. Match.
She is donating her kidney.
Did you hear me?
I said, she is donating her kidney.
To a "stranger".
The surgery is today.
In Nashville.
Kelley selflessly donates her kidney at 1:00.
Matt receives the life-saving kidney at 2:30.
God has worked in amazing ways through all of this.

There's also a Facebook group "Praying for Matt McCallum & Kelley Zeringue" with lots more info if that's what floats your boat.

Hope you'll pray for Kelley and Matt and their families and all the surgeons.

It's a neato story.

It's a big wow.

Peace out people.
