His dad's responsibility in the church is audio, so he is involved in making sure that worship is working clearly.  Unfortunately, his dad suffers from attacks that are like epilepsy, and the doctors there don't know what to do, or how to fix it.  The family still trusts in God, and know that he is extremely relevant in their lives.
