Homeschool Family Needs Your Prayers!!!

I have been notified by my local homeschool co-op of a family that is in desperate need of prayer! This weekend, the homeschool family was driving and was hit head on by an intoxicated driver. The father, Daniel Hottman, was able to give direction to his family in how to escape from the car before he passed away. The rest of the family, which consists of the mother, Cristy, Winston (23 ), Hannah (20) and Erika (12), are still in the hospital. The mother is doing very badly and is in need of several surgeries, however her vitals aren't good enough for them to do that yet. At this time, they do not have much hope for her. The children all had pretty severe injuries as well, and are still in the hospital, but they are all asking for prayer for their mother.

Please keep this family in your prayers. They are having to make arrangements for the father's funeral, however with the mother's health at the moment, it is a very difficult situation for them. Also, please pray for the driver. She was a 24 year old woman, and is currently being charged with intoxicated manslaughter. It is so easy to judge and condemn, but we all fall short of the glory of God and have all made mistakes. I am sure this is one that will haunt this young woman for the rest of her life and she will need God's grace to see her through.

Give your children and your spouse an extra long hug today!!!
