- About Mitch
- I was diagnosed on May 25, 2007 with AML (Acute Myeloid Leukemia) while living in Los Angeles, CA. After undergoing 6 rounds of chemotherapy at the LA County General Hospital, I moved back to my home in Spokane, WA fully expecting to remain in remission. Unfortunately, the leukemia came back and was discovered on March 17th, 2008. I was admitted to Sacred Heart Hospital (in Spokane) and given the news that I needed a bone marrow transplant in order to beat this thing. I will begin the transplant process at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance on June 17th, 2008. I am no longer single after marrying my beautiful wife, Chelsea on August 2nd at the University of WA Medical Center. We are looking forward to a great future and long life of ministry once this is behind us. I am totally committed to Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior and love to serve him especially ministering to youth (junior high and high school students.) During this entire process of battling the cancer, my Scripture focus has been 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: "Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus." God is faithful!

Mitch truly impacted everyone, including people he had never even met. You hear the name Mitch Thomas and you know his story, his obedience to the Lord. You meet Mitch and think, "Wow! I want what he has!" He will defenately be missed! But right about now hes looking into Jesus's eyes! One time at extreme days, there wasnt room in any of the tents so Mitch set up camp in the middle of the grass and when everyone woke up we had to be quiet so we didnt wake the beast! And his magic tricks were hilarious!
