I just wanted to post one more thing here on Emma's blog today. Its a prayer request. Please pray for the family of Robert Logan Anderson. We heard about him in church today. He died in an ATV accident, while at church camp, he did not go to our church but another one near here, and a lot of our youth and our pastor where there when it happened. We also ask that you pray for those that were at camp with him, as you can only imagine what it has done to their hearts. It sounds like a very emotional week was had at camp, and my heart is with his family right now. I can't even begin to imagine their pain as they laid their son to rest yesterday. I cried at church, and thanked God for one more day with my children. Hug your children a little tighter, and remember they are not ours, but God's we are ony taking care of them for a little while, we must take care that we make that short time as memorable and loving as possible.

Here is the Obit for the young man.
