Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
Please be praying for healing for Josiah, and for strength for his family as they are lead through this soul-wrenching trial. We praise the Lord that they are His children, knowing that He cares tenderly for His own.

The request from Josiah's aunt is below.
In Faith,
Ceira

"Dear Friends,

I am so full of sorrow as I write this email to you all.
At midnight, Bob and I got a call from my sister, Sarah, in Tennessee with the news that her 18 year old son had been in a terrible car accident. They were at the hospital at that time but were not yet allowed to see Josiah.
She asked at that time if I could ask my friends to pray.
Later at around 5am Sarah called back. Both she and her husband, Steve, had spoken with two Doctors. One was hopeful, the other offered no hope at all. His skull fractured and severe head trauma had occurred.
I spoke with my parents who live in southern calif. a little while ago. Steve's brother had called and given the news to my dad just minutes before I phoned. It was heartbreaking to even be talking to my mom and dad of such an unthinkable event. I asked my dad what information Steve's brother had given him, knowing it would be the most up-to date. He replied that it was going to take a miracle.
Sarah told me at 5am that she is believing God for a miracle and I know that she would want us all to pray the same.
My sister's entire family are Christians. My brother in-law is a pastor of a Calvary Chapel in TN. I am sure their entire church knows by now and is praying. Please pray as you are led by the Lord for my sister's entire family and my parents. This is so, so hard for them and being such a long distance away makes it even tougher.
Whatever be the Lord's will we say, "Blessed be your name."
Thanks so much,
Liza
P.S. I will send updates as I receive them"
