trusting in God and letting your light shine. May God Bless each of
you!!!

Your
family's faith and witness is an inspiration to so many people. Thank
you for being so open during such a hardship in your lives. Tom, I heard
you preach at Westmoreland Baptist last Memorial Day and was so moved.
I've often thought of your family and now you're in my prayers daily.
Hugs and kisses to both Ben and Eli.

Every
comment in your guest book has already said every thing I would say.
Tom, your wife was my step grandson's therapist. I know the work your
wife does for others will be greatly rewarded through God's ultimate
healing of little Ben.. It will be a long and progressive healing but I
know God almighty will not let you and your family down. God takes care
of His family and He knows you are very much a part of His Family.The
family who prays together I truly believe stays together.To seperate you
from Ben would be breaking a loving and devoted family of God apart and
I don't even think God will let that happen.You hang tight to this verse
Isaiah 26:4 and only good things will come your way. God Bless You in
your time of need.... You are in my heart, in my prayers, and little Ben
is on my mind.. God Speed !! Sincerely Brenda King

Tom, I
just read your letter posted last night late. Remember the service at
River Cities where you said God would recieve Glory in all this? Your
challenge to "believe God", not to just simply believe in God brings Him
Glory.

Tom and
Jennifer...You all are in our prayers! "God will take care of you!" To
everyone that reads this message, I ask you to take 5 to 10 minutes out
of your morning tomorrow/Tuesday and say a very specific prayer for Ben,
the Doctors, nurses, technicians, Tom, Jennifer and Eli. If we will all
take 5 minutes some time between 7:00 and 12:00 noon Tuesday we should
be able to have a continuous prayer all morning! God bless you! Darrell.

To the
Bowen family: I don't know you personally, but I have followed Ben's
situation through Laura and Sherry who are my son Mason's therapists. As
a mother of a special needs child I can only offer you my hope and
prayers. I lay awake at night thinking about your family and all you
have been through. God will take care of you. Remember to take a moment
for yourselves during this time and to look toward better days to come.
I will be praying for you. Marci

To the
Bowen Family, I heard your story today from a friend, and haven't been
able to get you off of my mind. I wanted to take time to let all of you
know that me and my family will pray for you all daily. Have faith even
through the most difficult times. Love and prayers, Tracy Kelly

Dear
Jennifer and Tom, What a wonderful God we serve. Who would have imagined
what an impact an Easter Egg Hunt can have on one's life. Through
conversation and children at play we became friends as we shared our
stories of how we had gotten to St. Jude and Target House. God meant for
us to meet that day with Lloyd's shirt logo attracting Tom's attention.
It was a "God Moment" as we shared our faith with each other and knew
that where two or three are gathered in His name there He is also. As we
all keep Believing God know that you are in our prayers here in Florida
as Ben has his surgery tomorrow. And Believing God we know that our Lord
will also hold you Jennifer, Tom and Eli in the palm of His hand also in
the minutes, hours, days, weeks, and months ahead. I'll keep checking on
you too through the website. God Bless You, Diane

Tom, I
love you, I love your faith. You reinforce in me my desire to surrender
to God's will. I cannot imagine what you must be going through. I trust
you will remain strong in your faith, you have a beautiful wife and
Ilijah is awesome! I have misplaced your paperwork for now, I don't know
when I will find it, your stream is free until I get back to you. You
may not read this message for a while but thank you for the man you are
and your inspiration to me to turn again to my God. May you have a
blessed easter filled with the peace and joy of our lord the Christ
Jesus, and may God keep you and your family together forever in His
loving embrace.

Dear Tom
and Jennifer, You do not know me. I was contacted by Scott Riedel. Tom,
according to Scott, you were wonderful when their house burned and he
wanted me to know that you guys were in St. Jude. I just wanted to let
you know that I will be praying for you guys daily and that I have added
Ben to the prayer list at my church, Faith Baptist. My work phone number
is 901/748-9214, my home number is 901/382-1486, and my cell number is
901/277-1226. If there is anything that I can do for you while you are
in Memphis please give me a call. I was going to call you and just offer
help but I am not sure how to contact you and the web site did not give
a phone number. I will be happy to run errands, pick things up that you
need or whatever you might need. I will be out of town this weekend
visiting my son and his family but will be back Sunday evening. It was
so encouraging to read your letter and I will be sharing this with my
bible study group. We are currently studying the Beth Moore series
"Believing God". It is aswesome

Ben, I
pray that God touches you in the way that through you He is touching us.
I pray that God removes the rest of the tumor and that you heal so
quickly. And when the time comes for your chemo treatments that the time
will just fly by for you. I believe that God is going to heal you. I
believe it with all my heart. I believe that God is going to use you to
touch so many others and they are going to see hope. Father, touch Ben
and his family. Hold them so very close to you. Give them your strength
and comfort. Put people in their lives Lord that they can at times lean
on and be leaned on. I pray for healing Lord, for Ben. Lord, I pray that
you send ten thousand Angels to watch over him. We all lift this family
up in prayer to you.

Hey guys,
wanted you to know we are praying for you this morning. I know that
everything works to the good of those who know Christ Jesus. Lauren and
I got to see President Bush Friday April 2nd at the Joan C. Edwards
PlayHouse. I got to shake his hand and told him that Tom Bowen said
hello. President Bush then replied, "Give Tom my best". Just a little
not of encouragement from the Pres. Tom give me a call man. We love you
guys. Joshua and Lauren
