A team of employees from Pharmacy, Cancer Care, Nursing, Nuclear Medicine, and Radiation Safety trained for and treated their first Lutathera patient at Kettering Cancer Care.

Lutathera is a unique treatment for patients with gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. The team uses PET imaging to locate the cancer and then Lutathera to treat the tumors on a cellular level.

In November, First Lady Fran DeWine visited Soin Medical Center and Kettering Health Greene Memorial to show her appreciation for our commitment to the community.

Soin Medical Center’s Mother/Baby Unit enrolls newborns in the Imagination Library program, which sends a free book each month to children of enrolled families. DeWine is a large proponent of the program and heads Ohio’s Imagination Library efforts. During her tour of Soin, she visited the Mother/Baby Unit, thanked employees for their support, and met a family and their newborn baby Jace.

“One person gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to poverty. A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed” (Prov. 11:24–25, NIV).

For me, Christmas has always been a time of immense gratitude for all that God has done in my life. However, amid the wonderful festivities and excitement—glimmering lights, delicious food and gifts wrapped with bows—it’s easy to forget that for some, these displays are a further reminder of what they don’t have.

“And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from His glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus” (Phil. 4:19, NLT).

Traces of this text can be easily seen in my journey with a God who consistently provides for me and my family beyond which we can ever ask or imagine. He is our Jehovah-Jireh, the Source of our provision.

At the end of my seminary experience, I was left hanging in the waiting place. With no pastoral call, not knowing what my next step would be and confined with limited resources, I kept asking God, “What’s the plan?”
