What a Week

This was one of those weeks that was way too full of events. It doesn't happen often, thankfully. Nothing affected me directly but none the less sent me to my knees in prayer. You may not know that in November a runaway came to our door, a 16 year old fellow from Lancaster city. He hadn't run away far. What a time that first month was as Garrett stayed with families in our church and now is with a family that can keep him till he graduates. Well, the week started with the runaway running away. He is back with the family now and they love him as if he were their own. It's amazing. Then just yesterday, the daughter of this same family was in a serious auto accident and when they got to the hospital they didn't know if she even was alive. They had only heard that it didn't look good. I happened to be at the hospital picking up Sarah from volunteering and so we went right to the ER. Every parents nightmare. It was tense till they found out her injuries and that she can recover. Three days before another teen in our church got hit by a car when her car broke down and she was beside the car flagging it (while dark) She was thrown into the road but her rider was able to stop traffic so she was not run over again. She has lots of broken bones but should also recover. Stan worked A Lot this week as he also had a funeral on top of all these crises. We also found out that a fellow in our Sunday School class broke probation and is back in prison. Many needs! Well, today Stan and I are going to see King Kong and out to eat. I don't cook on Sunday eve. Every one is on their own , so it's a good time for Stan and I to get away. Love, Jeanne
