On March 13th Noah was diagnosed with a brain tumor found at the cerebellum against his brainstem (Classic Medulloblastoma)
Please pray for Noah, his parents Samuel and Christina, and his sister Lauren. Noah's MRI yesterday shows his tumor has regrown, and he faces more difficult treatment to come. Lord have mercy.
The Lord will reward your faith through this trial, which you have borne with grace which inspires.
"Noah found his cure He just had to go to heaven to receive it"
Those are enlightened, courageous words, to keep in our hearts throughout our own lives. Thank you, for sharing Noah and his journey with us. It is a great gift for us to be together here, of one mind in prayer. We're a family, and I know we will continue to pray for strength and healing for Noah's loved ones, and for you, too.
May God bless you, and give you peace!
Grateful
Sad news. Requiescat in pace, Noah.
“Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” (Mt 5:4)
Bittersweet news to be sure...
Condolences and prayers for Noah’s family and friends.
Amen!
We mourn with Noah’s family. We rejoice knowing Noah is home.
BTW, thank you so much for engaging ‘us’ at FR for prayers.
I followed the Caring Bridge site as well. Noah’s family will do well. They know he is in Good Hands now. What courage and strength that youngster displayed. Give us a battalion of Noah’s and we can right the ship of our nation.
Thank you, infool, for your loving stewardship of this prayer thread. May you also receive divine comfort and assurance.
Wonderful and most appropriate pic.
So sorry. Just tears right now... please tell his parents, family and friends that Lil’ Noah... even though I never met him or had the honor to hold him.. has a place in my heart. So precious is a child that can bond and unite strangers in prayer and now grief. (((Hugs))) Mom
As a father of young ones this is especially saddening. God’s peace be with them.
Noah: Derived from the Hebrew name (Noach) meaning “rest, comfort”.
May you find comfort knowing that as believers in Christ this goodbye is but for a little while. Your life with Noah has been a wonderful testimony.
Services for Noah were held this Saturday, you can view them here.

Thanks for letting us share his journey with you.......
So precious a child and family!
From the Orthodox Funeral Service for a Young Child:
“Who would not lament for you, my child, as your end journey begins from this world to another home? For while still a little child, all too soon from your mother’s arms, as might a birdling on speeding wing upborne, are you departed to Him that made all things. O child, who from lament could refrain when he beholds your lovely face, which was like a gladsome rose, now fading fast away?
Who would not with groaning sighs, my child, and floods of clamorous tears mourn the wealth of your comeliness and the beauty shining forth from the innocence of your heart? For like a caravel which leaves no wake behind, so are you vanished, and from my eyes are sped.
Come, my beloved friends, kinsfolk, neighbors, now draw nigh to join with me in the kiss of last farewell, and bear him to his grave.
Through the prayers of our holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy and save us. Amen.”
