In need of your prayers

Greetings friends and family,
I apologize for once again being the bearer of bad news......

Unfortunately, Thursday night on our way to Elizabeth and Emma's Vacation Bible School program (only 3 minutes from our house) we were in a significant car accident. Someone turned left right into us while we were driving through a green lit intersection. Our van is totalled, Jon and I are recovering from minor leg and face (for Jon ) injuries. Thankfully the girls are completely fine. What is perhaps most challenging is the emotional trauma of enduring another accident after just recovering from the one I was involved in in April. In our entire lives, neither Jon or I have ever been involved in auto accidents of any kind, so it's been amazing to go through two in such a short time.

We are so thankful that we are all ok. Please pray that the insurance process and replacement of our van would go smoothly and not cause too much additional emotional or financial stress ontop of what has already been a challenging season for us.

We are so thankful for our families and our church family who have offered so much support, physically and emotionally, thank you!

We will definitely be praying for you guys. Renee and I had a similar experience in which we had both our cars totalled within a span of 14 months. The emotional and mental recovery was difficult for Renee, but we serve a great and merciful God who provides healing for our bodies, minds, and souls. We trust that He will prove His faithfulness yet again.
