This is email was sent to me from a person who grew up with Chesters wife (Robyn) and he and I worked together many years ago at SHF in Cooranbong. So I have no reason to doubt that it is not the real thing.

"Message from Robyn and Chester Themselves

>Dear Friends -

We're just writing this communication from home - arrived

>Kingsley and the Union office staff for their faithful communication re).

>This recent test evidenced very minimal heart damage and according to the

>Chester had been digging heavy clay with a pick for several days before -
>besides other potential contributing factors.

>The response of the experts is that Chester's general health has helped
>enormously in his recuperation, not to mention from our perspective, the
>prayers of so many loving and supportive people. These, the prayers and
>expressions of love and support, have kept us going throughout this
>challenging time. As such, this will be one of the first expressions of
>appreciation from us, but for now, thank you to each of you for such -

>Robyn and Chester."


We all praise the Lord and give thanks for the way Chester has recovered.
