The gal who sits in front of my in the choir has a sister who is a single
mom of three, an 8-year old girl, 2-year old boy, and 11-month old girl (I
think that's correct).  Anyway, early this morning, someone drove by her
house and threw a bomb of some sort into the house which immediately caught
the house on fire.  The three children all died and the mom is in the
hospital in very serious condition with 2nd and 3rd degree burns over 50% of
her body.  She is at this time unaware that all of her children are dead.

The family is taking this very hard and understandably so.  There seems to
be no rhyme nor reason for this incident and it is under investigation.
Thoughts at this moment are that it was a random incident with no
"targeting" involved.

Please pray for this family.  The funeral is at our church on Tuesday at
2:00pm.  Unless the mother makes a miraculous recovery, she will not even be
able to attend the funeral of her three children.  As a mother myself, I
cannot even fathom the weight of sorrow this family must feel.

Thanks for your prayers . . .

Blessings,
Jan

doorkeeper in the house of my God, than to dwell in the tents of
wickedness."  (Psalm 84:10)
