I wanted to bring everyone up to date. I came into the hospital at Kaiser Moanalua on Oahu two days ago because I had serious infection and the cancer cells had taken over 70% of my blood serum...a dangerous condition to my arterial system which was indicated by low blood pressure. The infection was abated and then I was transfused with red blood cells and platelets because they had also been dropping way too low over the last few months. If I go home now, I have a very short time to live. So we decided to fight for more time. I am submitting myself to another round of deep chemo TODAY, something I really do not look forward to, but barring a straight out miracle from God it is the only way known that we can possibly knock down the leukemia cells. The treatment is quite risky and there is a chance they could lose me through it...so I would appreciate every one's prayers once again that God will show mercy to me...that the side affects will be minimal and that we would get even some remission to have more time to love you and my family and to continue to share the gospel of Christ. I may even be so bold as to have you ask God if this treatment could be used to send me into full remission...a real miracle...which would allow for a possible cure. In the physical, that possibility is a tiny sliver of hope...but all things are possible to God. I have felt the pressure to just give up...but how can I do that?... God just didn't make me that way...so into the battle we ride and I need your prayers, love and support more then ever. So let us rally together one more time before the Lord and present our prayers and supplications to Him. May His name be blessed forever...even in death we are more than conquerors...for His resurrected life has swallowed up death itself. I love you all more than words could ever express. Stay the course, keep the faith...trust in Him through it all.
Love in Christ forever and ever

Dear Pastor Kit and your family,
We pray for comfort and ease from pain, we pray for a miracle at Christmas time, we pray that you will have many more days here on earth. It was your Friday night messages 9 years ago that reached our hearts, opening our hearts to GOD so that we would come to know and accept and declare Christ as our Saviour. You and Craig baptized us at Kam 3 beach! Please know how much you have touched our lives and now the lives of our three young children who will grow up knowing GOD because of your passion for GOD and your messages! We're praying for you!

Prayer Warriors are on the job! Hang in there Kit, there are still too many Friday nights and Sunday mornings ahead with your name on it.
Praying He will hold you and carry you through this battle once again. May He give you many visions of you standing before us at Hope teaching, just as He did with Love Your God series. Praying without ceasing for you brother. Love you much Kit.
