Tragedy

The girls were only at the water park for a few minutes when another girl from our town received a phone call from her dad who is a sheriff deputy. Three local kids were in a roll over accident. One 14 year old boy is dead. The driver, a 16 year old girl who just got her permit two days ago may have a broken back and its unknown about the other boy but he is very bad too.
Hannah's friend Conchita was just texting the boy who died last night and he wanted her to come with them today. She could have been involved in the wreck too.

I prayed with the girls and talked to them about how we must always be ready to meet God.
I called our old pastor and he talked to her and prayed with her as well.
A tragedy like this impacts the whole town when you live in a rural community like we do. We live in the country but these kids all know each other.
Many kids from summer fun school were also at the water park and everyone went home. Its a very sad day for our community.

Debbie, I'll be praying for the families and your girls as well. And that the community will turn to the Lord....
