So we just spent the last hour or so with a sweet little girl named Kate Mcrae. Kate is 5 1/2 and is has just finished her 2nd roi d of Chemo to fight a brain tumor that she and her family were shocked to find out about in July. This little girl was smiling and telling us how to sing Pop it Lock it Poke a dot it, which is apparently a Hannah Montana ditty, even though she felt miserable.
We’re asking again for you guys to pray and pray hard for God to be shown off through Kate and her family. Her dad is a pastor here in Phoenix and both of her parents, Aaron and Holly have already been showing Jesus to those around them in the hospital. Pray for continued strength for them as they trust God in this trial.

I will pray for little Kate,the good Lord watches over angels especially, she has so much to live for a whole life ahead of her to be fullfilled in Love.
I will be praying for Kate and ask God to wrap His loving arms around her and to heal her.
Hi MercyMe!
I have always loved you guys and your music, but now I love you all even more (didn’t think that was even possible, ha)! Thank you for visiting sweet Kate and for posting about her here on your blog. I am a SLOB and love the hearts for God you all have. Your music has touched my life in so many ways and to see how sweet you guys are just warms my heart. I have been praying for Kate and her family for awhile now.
A couple friends and I organized a card drive called “Cards for Kate” that you can see more about here on my blog – http://kristinaisonehappymama.blogspot.com/2009/08/cards-for-kate-card-drive.html and another friend of mine created and designed a beautiful digital scrapbooking kit called “A Kit for Kate” that you can see more about here – http://creativitybycrystal.blogspot.com/2009/09/kit-for-kate.html. ALL donations from the sale of the kit go to the McRae family to help pay for medical expenses.
Thank you for all that you do. May God continue to bless you and your families AND your music. Thank you for the prayers for Kate and her family.
With love,
Kristina Proffitt

How awesome that you spent time with this family. I have been following their story and praying from the beginning for sweet Kate. It is refreshing to see artists actively living out their faith. May God continue to bless you!! I will continue to pray for this dear family.
Thanks SO MUCH Guys! YOUR HEARTS are Made of GOLD! I will
be Praying Fervently for little Kate. Also Please Pray for a Young Girl in My Church named Amy, She just turned 19 in August and She has been battling Austiosarcoma for 2 years
now and she dosn’t have much longer left. She has tumors
that are continually growing in her lungs now and a growth in
her throat that wants to shut her air off. She is now at home
and on Oxygen. She also has to have shots for Terrible head-
aches caused by tumors growing in her brain. Guys, Even with
the terrible pain this young girl has to be in, She has been Such an Inspiration to our church and community and surrounding communities. She has led MANY Young people to Christ through her witnessing. Young People like her and Kate
are ANGELS in Disguise! I don’t know what else to say!
Yes this little girl and her family need a lot of prayers. I heard about her health challenges a few months ago and keep up to date on their website. Thank you for spending some time with them and helping to spread the word. They will continue to be in my prayers. Blessings, Joanne
You met an amazing family and little girl… God continues to show off for Kate. Your visit to her is just another example. Thank you for your heart in calling us to “pray hard for Kate”. Kate and her family need continued fervent prayer!!!
MercyMe-your a huge blessing to the kingdom of God.
May God keep His wonderful hand upon you all always.
I was so happy to see that you posted on your time with Kate! You could tell in the journal that her parents were so thrilled to have you visit them. I’m also so happy to see that so many know of her needs. She is slowly changing the world just by being her.
Thank you for sharing your gifts with the rest of us 
Take care, and God bless you all!
Of course, I love your music!!! God has given you all some wonderful gifts. I’m so glad that He has chosen to use you all in the capacity. I appreciate it
