Prayer Request

We just heard that a boy from one of the other churches attending camp with Darlene was severely injured. Here is the email we received.

Tim called after 11:00 last night and informed me that a 15 yr. old male camper was involved in one of the camp activities (inflatable sumo wrestling suits). He fell back and hit his head, they do not think he will make it. There was no brain activity at the hospital last night, they are checking him again this morning. His family was supposed to have moved out of town but because he wanted to go to camp they decided to put the move off for a couple weeks so he could attend. His parents are w/him at the hospital, please keep the whole situation in your prayers. Tim said that the entire camp atmosphere has changed drastically. Last night's evening service was incredible. When I hear more details I will pass them along.

Update: Curtis was procnounced dead this afternoon. He is now in Heaven with his Father.

sooooooo sorry to hear that and how sad and traumatic for all those campers. Thankfully he is in heaven, but what a VERY sad situation. I will pray for the family.

How is Darlene with it all?

It was pretty traumatic and the same day Curits passed away her boyfriend almost broke his leg another boy from our church dislocated his knee. It was really hard to send Christopher away this week! The youth pastor promised to send Christophper home in better condition than the senior highers.
