“Any chance I get to share my love of God, I do,” said Dan Brandenburg, as he shared his journey with cancer and his faith in God, when he addressed the Brotherhood and the Christus Lutheran Church Women (CLCW) on Dec. 6 in the Christus Lutheran Church Parish Hall.
Brandenburg learned he had cancer in early 2017. A CT scan revealed that he had a large mass on his stomach and it was wrapped around the liver.
“I held Patsy’s hand and asked the oncologist if there was any chance, and he nodded his head and said, yes there was,” Brandenburg said.
Treatment began with chemotherapy.
“The angels are the mystery of faith,” Brandenburg said. “We can’t see, hear, or touch God physically. I didn’t doubt God but I wanted some assurance that he had heard my prayers. I did receive a sign. In Psalms 91, verse 11, it reads ‘For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.’”
