Dustin is having a better day today and is moving his mouth for us to lip read. He is more alert and his eyes are clearer. I got him some new glasses and they seem to be a great visual improvement. He is listening to voice commands and is responding to them. Praise God for His mercy and grace.
I tried to go to the S.S. office by bus this morning and made it only to find out it was closed due to holiday on Monday. I at least now know how to find the place for tomorrow.
The prayers of you all are felt by us as well as Dustin and we know that the enemy is shaking because he is losing another battle as Father God draws Dustin nearer to Him. Dustin is listening to the i pod with the new testament and we read scripture to him and he is receiving the Word. praise God.
Love, Rick

Ain't no mountain tall enough to stop what God is doing not only in the Bowman/Jones family, but in all the lives impacted by your journey.
We pray that the visit with your mom is especially tender and peaceful.
Mary Pat, you are a good daughter and you have brought much joy to her life. How blessed she is! Hope she knows how much your love touches the world.
Hugs and prayers,
Diane
Dear Rick, Mary Pat and Dustin
We want to just let you know you're in our thoughts and prayers.
Behold, God is my salvation: I will trust and not be afraid; for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song, He also is become my salvation
Isaiah 12:2
We pray that the LORD will continue to be your strength, song and salvation! What He is doing in your lives will be known in all the earth.... for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee. (Isaiah 12)
Sending you His Love Song and our Hugs and Prayers

Hey guys,
We just wanted to throw you a line to let you know that you are in our prayers regularly. We love you and are standing with you in these difficult times!
Love,
matthew and John M.
Love takes time, and is kind. Your presence itself is a great comfort(it would be for me :-), to Dustin as he goes through this hard time.
This is my prayer, Psalm 107:20,
He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.
Father, express your thoughts to Rick, Mary Pat, Dustin, Nerina, lead and help them in forgiveness, comfort and healing.
Bless you, love you,
Michael Francis
Hi Mary Pat & Rick,
I don't know if my comments went through before so I'm writing again - just to say I pray for all of you, even when I wake up at night. We all want Dustin to be restored in every way so how can God ignore us? I pray for strength for Dustin and peace to let God do His work in him. Miss you. Love & blessings, Pat K.
have not got the hang of this yet, so I maybe emailing to the wrong spot. We are praying for all of you. I just know that God loves you both very much and he loves Dustin too.
You must be such a blessing to so many people as I am sure they are to you. Sometimes there is nothing really to say and yet there is so much you want to say. This scripture just keeps coming to me over and over again.
God is saying to you all Because you had set your love upon me. Inserting your name or Dustin's is just powerful.. I have been praying that. We love you
Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
Psa 91:15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I [will be] with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.T
Psa 91:16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

Hey Dustin,
I just want you to know, that the people at PVC prayed for you tonight.
And you have a lot of people on your side. but most importantly I pray that you will chose to let God be on your side. And I want you to know that the wedding that you helped with , the couple is now expecting. That is is to say, they are going to have a baby. I am so glad to hear how awesome you are doing in the progress of your recovery.
Mary Pat and Rick, Just to let you know that Laura and I are fervently praying daily for the direct intervention of the Lord on behalf of you both and Dustin and your mom. We love you so much and are standing right beside you in the spirit, distance not meaning a thing except that we cannot hug you or hold your hand. Be not afraid, only believe. (Mark 5:36)
We love you!!!
Don Smith
