SUPERBOWL SUNDAY SNACKS

Thought I'd start this post so that if you are bringing something to our superbowl party at Howie & Beth's next Sunday, you can comment below and tell us what you're bringing! The game starts at 3:20 so hope to see you all there. If you're too cool for the game, there will totally be a non-superbowl party in the other nicer, bigger room, with catered food and party favors...hahaha....just kidding. Maybe.

Last Night & Beyond!

I just wanted to thank Calvin & Michele for bringing by the snacks for us last night even when they weren't able to come to group themselves! You guys are awesome and very faithful! Also thanks to Ivan and Haley for fighting Luke & Luke II, starwars style in the kids room!

Prayer Request - UPDATE #3

Hey Guys - Could you pray for my Grandma and Grandpa. I just got a call that said they were in a roll over accident. The ambulance is on the scene and I don't have a lot of information. Thank you!

Update - I just talked with my Uncle who is with them at the hospital. My Grandma is pretty beat up and cut up but should be ok without surgery etc... My grandpa's neck is broken but he hasn't lost any feeling or use of his limbs, body, etc... They are gauging whether or not he will need surgery or alternative therapy to heal his neck. It is also possible that he has a punctured lung but not sure yet. Thanks for your prayers!

Final Update - Just talked to my dad who made it into the hospital. Both of my grandparents are stable now. My grandfather broke one vertebrae and my grandma broke two, but both were very slight fractures. They will both have to wear collars for two months but after that should be fine.

Further Discussion

Hey Everyone,

I know last week was kind of heavy and I wanted to encourage you to chat with others in the HC if you are still processing questions, thoughts, etc... I can almost guarantee you that if you have a question rolling around in your brain then someone else has it as well.
