CAA Daughters Struck by Car—UPDATE
On October 9, a missionary family in a creative access area experienced every parent’s worst fear – having not one, but both of their daughters struck by a car. The girl’s parents recently asked the church, “Please continue to pray for the strength, stamina, and motivation to continue with physical therapy. Our younger daughter has a walking cast and we hope that means more mobility. Our older daughter has a while until she can put weight on one side. So MANY good things have come out of this! We have seen unity in the Body like never before. We have seen our girls grow in leaps and bounds in maturity and mindset.” Please continue to pray for the girls.
