Need your prayers!!

Last night the Chief of Police from Port Barre, LA was in a high speed chase into Pointe Coupee Parish (right over the bridge from Krotz Springs) and apparently lost control of his car and hit a tree and was killed. Any officer, in my opinion, killed in the line of duty is a hero. He was 54 and a good man. Please pray for his family, his friends, and the community as they deal with the loss of of a good man and a dedicated officer. Here is the story with a picture of what is left of his car, just click here to get to the DailyWorld site.

Also last night, three girls from Krotz Springs were injured in a 4-wheeler accident. Two are seriously injured. They are teenagers. No parent should ever have to deal with this. It is a horrible thing to have happen. Please pray that these girls make a full recovery and that God will give their parents (and all of the family) the strength to get through this. I grew up with the parents of these girls and having a 16-year-old of my own, this really hits home.

Thanks so much in advance for all of you who care enough to pray for these girls and these families!!
