Please Pray

I wanted to ask you to be praying for the parents of the 3 children you see above. I have never met this family... but they have been weighing heavily on my heart for the last month. On May 5th, Emma (4), Katie(2), and Kyle(5) were riding in a car with their Mom Lori, who was driving, and their Grandmother. They were on a major California freeway, and traffic had slowed to a stop. A semi driving somewhere between 55 and 70 mph never slowed, plowing into, and over the back of their minivan. All three kids were sitting in the back... Katie and Emma died at the scene. Kyle was rushed into surgery but died a few hours later. Lori and her mom were hospitalized for quite awhile but did survive.

I don't really think any explanation is necessary as to why I would ask that we all be praying for them. But the reason I bring it up almost one month after the accident is because I know that the more time that passes, the more reality sets in. I know what it's like to lose one child. But even then, I cannot even begin to fathom how I would take the next breath if I lost all three at one time and in such a tragic way. It takes my breath away just to think about it.

So please pray for Lori and Chris. From what I have read, they are a wonderful Christian family and they need our support as they grieve the loss of all that was their family.

Thanks everyone.
