Your Prayers, Please

Please keep Alan's friend Ben Scott in your prayers. His younger brother, Junior, was found dead yesterday. He was only 25 years old. There is some suspicion as to how he died. Please remember Ben, his siblings, and their parents in your prayers, asking that they will find some comfort in God and the presence of one another. We can only hope that if other people were involved they are brought to swift justice.

We also can't help but think of Alan's classmate, Yi Jien Hwa, who never came back from his hike in August as well as a long time family friend who went missing this summer, was found in a coma, and passed away. Death is never easy-- Alan lost his Aunt Judy and Grandpa in the past few years. A few days, even a year of illness never seems like enough time when you are robbed of a loved one. Yet these deaths that are so sudden and tragic, and surrounded in mystery, leave your heart wishing you had at least one last minute to say goodbye.
