Pray for Peter Helms

On Thursday, Peter Helms, a homeschool student from Texas and NCFCA speech and debater (the league Lindsey and I were involved in during highschool), was the victim of a serious car accident. Peter was flown to a nearby hospital, where he is currently in a coma with bleeding on the brain.

His sister-in-law, Hope wrote in an update,

"On Monday or Tuesday the doctors plan to try and get him conscious, but for now they are just trying to keep Peter stable through this critical time.

Prayers for physical strength would be greatly appreciated. We are all exhausted (especially mom who was here through the night and has gotten very little sleep). God has used so many people to encourage and strengthen us and we are so grateful.

We are sorrowful, yet hopeful because we know we serve a God who can make even dead men walk again. God has been faithful to us in the past, even in our unfaithfulness to him, and we know he will be faithful to us as we walk the road ahead."

Please join us in lifting up the Helms family. Updates on Peter's condition can be read on his Facebook group page, here.
