In my thoughts and prayers are the children of cottonwood.

It seems that when a tragedy happens we become closer, or rather the world shrinks a little bit and the ripples of the tragedy are felt far far away.

The Javins brothers are relatives of a couple at my church here in Mankato. Todd and Lynn Javins are two of the most caring people I know from Mankato. Lynn is in charge of children’s ministry at Hosanna and  you will find Todd volunteering to help out where ever he can. The brothers are Todd’s cousins children…..the ripple is felt, and tears fall. It’s likely you know some one affected too. We all are.

Please keep the Javins in your prayers, as well as the other children and their families. Hug your children, and take more photos of them then you ever have time for.

God Bless, I’ll be in touch tomorrow!

    ugh!  i drove right by that scene on my way to Marshall.  there were lights everywhere and they detoured me around it, but you could see it from the detour and there were cars parked all over trying to watch.  when i got to marshall i heard about what had happened.  SO sad.
