[Update: Sunday, June 22. There is now a full "Connor Watch" website, with prayer needs, FAQ, and such.]
A friend of the family, Connor Williamson, broke his neck in a diving accident yesterday. He was life-flighted out of the Hume Lake, California area and is now in intensive care in Fresno.
Pray for Connor, that God would glorify himself by healing Connor miraculously. Surely, God can be glorified in Connor’s suffering, but he can also glorify himself in Connor’s healing. So let’s pray for that.
Keep updated at the Connor watch blog. (The blue text is a link to it).
Already this is an awesome testimony:
Connor is singing hynms… he can’t move a muscle yet he finds it within himself to sing hymns!Eric [Connor's dad] told me this story… there is a terminal patient in the bay next to Connor who appears to braindead. Connor, laying in his bed with a halo on his head, saw this person’s mother and asked her, “Would it be alright if I prayed for your son?”
Connor was in the youth group I worked with for years, and, in the midst of this tragedy, it is awesome to see such faith in a remarkable young man.
