Prayers Requested

We received word yesterday from Ken Cluff that Kyle, a young man (22) that had been working at Cardinal Village for the last several summers, was killed in a rock climbing fall.

Kyle was a vibrant young man who loved the Lord deeply, and was quick to fill in wherever he saw a need. He finished strong... his actions and attitude are an example for us all!

We grieve the loss to this world, but celebrate Kyle's entrance into the presence of his beloved Lord.

Please be praying...
... for his brother, Chris, who was with him when this happened
... for his parents and the rest of his siblings, who are up in northern Washington (near Spokane).
... for Ken as he takes care of the details on this end
... for the Cluff family as they comfort their close friends and try to continue to run Cardinal Village in the midst of this loss... and of the fires (they were evacuated and are supposed to be let back up there today)
... for the Cardinal Village staff as they mourn the loss of their friend and co-worker
... for all those affected by the loss of Kyle
... for all the details that need to be taken care of
... for the memorial service that will probably take place in Washington this weekend
... for the memorial service that will take place at Cardinal Village (date not set)

For those who have been praying for Jaco... the young man who was injured in an accident in June... he is back in Holland... we haven't received much information since he was transported back there... but here is the blog... check for updates... http://www.prayforjaco.blogspot.com/

Thank you for your prayers!
