Psalm 150 (The Message)

Hallelujah!
Praise God in his holy house of worship, praise him under the open skies; Praise him for his acts of power, Praise him for his magnificent greatness; Praise with a blast on the trumpet, praise by strumming soft strings; Praise him with castanets and dance, praise him with banjo and flute; Praise him with cymbals and a big bass drum, praise him with fiddles and mandolin. Let every living, breathing creature praise God!
Hallelujah!

This Says It All

E-MAIL FROM MARK MILLS

In case anyone is considering coming to the hospital, don't. Save the gas, save the time, it will do you no good. I'M FREE!! They released me this afternoon after only six days and I am home. We were shocked when the Dr. walked in this morning and told us. But after hours of poking and prodding they finally let us go. So we will be resting the next few days. I'll get back to everybody after some of this soreness has subsided. For now we will enjoy not having wake up calls every two hours. Mean time thank you for all of your continued prayers and concern. they lift us up.

Thank You Lord!

I just want to thank the LORD!

Great news today. Mark's Tumor was a stage 1 not stage 2, and he is healing at a miraculous rate! In fact he is being put on solid food as of today, all tubes are being removed and he could be home before the end of the week. Never let anyone tell you that Prayer does not work. Mark is proof that it does, God has big plans for Mark and for X-ALT! and nothing will stands in God's way of making his plans happen!
THANK YOU GOD! Thank you for your healing touch, Thank you for the blessings that you pour out on us every day, thank you for family, friends and complete strangers that are led to pray for us. Your greatness is seen in everything that happens in this world and it is up to us to see that greatness and understand that You are in control. Your hands touch us daily and we so often dismiss Your work as fate or coincidence. Fate does not exist, coincidence does exist, Only You are in control and we are safe in your hands and live with the assurance that no matter how it happens when our time comes we will have a home for all eternity with you. Until that time we live to serve You, praise You and spread Your word for all to hear.
You are the one true God and we thank you.
Amen

God Is Good and Prayer Works!

Thank you all for your prayers for Mark as he underwent cancer surgery this week. The doctors tell us that the surgery went as expected and that their was no immediate indication that the cancer had spread. This is great news, that means that there will be no need for cemo or radiation treatments!!!
Mark is recovering in the hospital for the next week or so then will need a few weeks of recovery at home before getting back to a more normal schedule, but he will be back soon.
Prayer works folks and we thank you for yours.

Checking In

Wow it's been an interesting month!!!!
But at X-ALT! we are not the type of folks that let
life get us down. We continue to write new material for
the next CD and let me tell you it some pretty good stuff.

We have beeen batteling some health problems, most noteably
Mark Mills recent cancer diagnosses, but the news is good
and the doctors tell us that surgery should take care of the
problem and Mark should be back up and running in a couple of
months. Untill then we will continue to write, do what recording
we can and be ready for late spring and Summer appearances.

We ask for your prayers for Mark and his family and for the X-ALT!
family, and keep watching here for further updates.

We will continue to lead our monthly service at New Beginnings as well as a few other churches that have contacted us but we will be doing these without
Mark untill he feels ready to come back.

Thanks for all your prayers and support
Vince
