PRAYER IS NEEDED

This post has nothing to do with Alyssa or her orphanage BUT it is extremely important.

On Wednesday night our next-door neighbours had a heartbreaking emergency. Their 13 year old son had an asthma attack and stopped breathing. After 1/2 hour of not breathing, the emergency personnel were able to get his pulse going again. He is in VERY CRITICAL condition right now and is in a coma. We are awaiting news on the lastest scan and testing to see if there is any brain activity. We are pleading for everyone to pray for this little boy and his family. He has an 8 year old brother and a 5 year old sister. As you can imagine, his parents are absolutely heartbroken and beside themselves with grief.

"When we call on Jesus, all things are possible...He'll move heaven and earth to come rescue us when we call...."

After being at our neighbour's house during this emergency and comforting their children we realize how precious our children are. Everyone needs to give their children an extra bit of love tonight! (and every day!)
