Mark and Kathy Andrews have been members at LCBC since 1999. In April 2015, their youngest child, Josiah, died of cancer. At a Women's Breakfast on 1 April 2017, Kathy spoke movingly about prayer and faith in the context of their loss. ‘One of the reasons I wanted to speak in this context,’ she said ‘is that so often, when we talk about how God answers prayers, we only tell about the times when God answered in the way we wanted him to. It's really easy to say "God is good" when things are going our way, but some of God's answers are very hard to accept.’
