Hello everyone!
I have some good news and some bad news, and I'm sure this will affect some of you as well.
Friday at around 6PM, a 5th grade student (Dominic), a good friend of mine, at my old elementary school was hit by a train. He IS alive, stable, and somehow still his cheery self, as he was reported to be "in good spirits." He really hasn't changed! Few people can survive this kind of accident, much less a child! Dominic is a modern day miracle for anyone who has doubts that they still exist.
However, on the down side, he has suffered severe injuries, the worst being that he lost one foot, with severe damage to his other foot.
He's one amazingly strong kid, but no one in the world can be prepared to go through this kind of trauma alone.
Thank you all and may the LORD watch over you.
Prayer request: Please pray for him, his family, and his friends (including myself) as this sinks in and give us all strength through this. He's been in the chess club I helped coach for 3 years and this is hitting me pretty hard.
Verse of the day: And we urge you, brothers and sisters, warn those who are idle and disruptive, encourage the disheartened, help the weak, be patient with everyone. ~1 Thessalonians 5:14
