Many of you know Alan Cross one of the genuine thinkers in the missional blogosphere. He and I became friends as a result of reform efforts in the Southern Baptist Convention three or so years ago.

Alan and Erika’s two-and-a-half year old son, Caelan, has already lived a lifetime worth of fighting due to his diagnosis with cancer at the age of 8 months and subsequent treatments. Yesterday, Alan posted that Caelan’s cancer may have returned. It’s a tough read.

The blogosphere is known for its “lurkers”-those who read posts all over, but never leave a comment. I’m asking everyone who stops by here today to follow the above link and leave an encouraging word for the Cross family. It’s not hard: fill in the info, leave a message and hit “Post.” If you don’t have a blog, that’s alright; leave the URL field blank. Your comment will still go through. Your two minutes will be a weight lifting word for them.
