At 5 a.m. the group enjoyed coffee and doughnuts, then moved on to the last order of business: the final prayer and balloon launch.

Balloons were handed out to each person present. There was a prayer, and each person was given the opportunity to say something on their own behalf or for someone they love. As heavy, gray clouds cloaked the morning skies, a few small drops of rain fell on those in prayer, as though perhaps God was touched by what he was seeing in his people. Then, in total silence, the balloons were released and drifted upward to the heavens.

And with that, this year's Relay For Life came to an end.
