Our Family

I'm sure all can agree that our family has suffered the "Job Syndrome." "Although for good [we] waited, yet bad came; And [we] kept awaiting the light, but gloom came." - Job 30:26 The hardships of life in a world under Satan's rule have constantly struck us, seemingly without let-up. (1John 5:19)
Through the power of faith and the desire to please our Heavenly Father, our family remains triumphant over the hurdles attempting to break us down. For that, I am proud. There's an epidemic of family breakdown, yet ours has proven we possess the "threefold cord" which "cannot quickly be torn in two." (Eccl. 4:12) By relying on God and allowing him to sustain us, each trial we endure strengthens us. (Psalm 55:22; James 1:2, 3)
Each member of our family provides a special uniqueness to what makes us "The Comeau Family." Whether finned, four-legged, or human, we all contribute to each other's happiness and comfort. We help to relieve one another's stresses, provide listening ears, bring moments of laughter, and cause senses of security.
We aren't going to let things tear any of us apart. We need each other in more ways than one. We know "God can be relied upon." (1 Co. 1:18) As a family, we will continue enduring together, relying on God and one another for strength, support, and encouragement.
We thank everyone who has felt compelled in their heart to reach out to assist our family through this difficulty.
