Pastor Howard Johnson of the Davenport, Iowa, Grace Brethren Church (shown here as he introduced Dr. David Plaster this past Sunday at the Iowa/Midlands District Conference) is scheduled to begin radical cancer treatment today at Northwestern University hospital in the Chicago area.
In the stem cell transplant procedure he will be re-injected with previously-harvested stem cells from his body after he undergoes massive chemo treatment to kill any remaining cancer cells. He expects to be away from his church for at least four weeks.
Please pray for Pastor Howard, for his wife, Sue, and for the Davenport church as they care for him through this process.
