We ought always to thank God for you, brothers, and rightly so, because your faith is growing more and more, and the love every one of you has for each other is increasing.

Coroners Testing to See if Ohio Girl Died of Meningitis
GARFIELD HEIGHTS, Ohio (AP) Coroners are conducting tests to see if a six-year-old girl from the Cleveland area died of bacterial meningitis.
The Garfield Heights girl became ill Friday night and died earlier this week. The cause of death was listed as sepsis, an infection of the bloodstream, but coroner Elizabeth Balraj says she's conducting more tests looking for evidence of meningitis.
Officials say the girl's classmates at Elmwood Elementary School likely wouldn't have contracted the illness through casual contact. The board of health is working with the girls' family to try to identify people who might need preventive medical care.
