A Marine who needs your prayers
Engine82 | 12-7-04 | Engine82

Posted on 12/07/2004 7:15:05 PM PST by Engine82

A former student of mine who is serving in a honor guard unit in D.C. was attacked by two men on Saturday and stabbed in the stomach. The aorta which passes through the stomach and a major vein was damaged. At one time he was not expected to live. He was given 11 units of blood to survive.

I talked with his mother today. He is recovering and will be moved to a private room from ICU. His mother said today they can feel the prayers of praying people.

May God hold this young man and his family close to Him now and give them peace and strength. May He guide the doctors and nurses who care for him, and use His awesome healing power, if that is His will, in Jesus' name.

Prayers for this young man's recovery and for the staff attending him in the hospital. Prayers for his family, who need God's strength, to get through this difficult period. All will be well.

Praying now for the continued healing and recovery of this Marine, and for the comfort of his family.

May I ask his name?
