    I got some sad news today that a friend of ours brother was killed while felling a tree. I don't know any details but it's a scary reminder that anything can happen and things can go wrong in the blink of an eye. It's such a shame and he was definitely too young. If you pray, please say a prayer for our friends family. I can't imagine what they're going through.

    Be safe out there guys and gals.

    Father, I and we lift Michael and his family to you. Bless them, help them recover from the grief, and to think clearly now. Bring those useful and selfless around them for advice, direction and support.

    In Jesus name.

    Thanks Jack Straw. He was a good kid. Only 27 and had so much life ahead of him.
