Our Homeschool Community Mourns Today

Last week saw the terror of two 

horrific traffic accidents 

involving students 

in our local area.

One day it was five

from a nearby school district.

The next day it was three siblings from 

our own homeschool community.

Today the friends and family 

of sixteen year old twin boys

and a nine year old sister 

will celebrate, remember and honor
their short lives.

I did not know the young

people personally

although I know of them

just because of our 

homeschool connections.

However, young people 

that I do know well

have been called upon to sing and

accompany the music for this special 

service.

Please keep them and all who 

are hurting so deeply

in prayer today 

and in the days to come.

I was amazed and pleased to 

see the parents speak with our 

local television reporter.

They spoke of their grief...

so real.

But they also spoke of their

HOPE.

Our Lord and Savior....

the One who they say gives

them the strength to get out 

of bed each day.

Hard, hard days lie ahead.

My heart is heavy for them

this morning as they say

"Goodbye".

May many be reached with the 

Gospel today and in the days to 

come as we grapple with 

the fact of eternity.
