Fire

Bob and Michelle Carder have suffered a house fire. Michelle is unharmed but Bob is in the Hospital in St. Louis.

For those of you who dont know who Bob is he is someone Liela and I call a our friend, he serves the Lord through the Missionary Church USA denomination, a former Senior Pastor now he is responsible for missional church development in the midwest district (I have no clue what his title is) and he has been helping Liela and I hash through some of our issues with church and help us as we develop what God is doing here in Independence. He often comments here on this site and always trys to encourage everyone to find their real mission in life.

Bob was trying to get his motorcycle ready for spring and started it in the garage. He then went inside and a neighbor came over yelling that his garage was on fire. Bob grabbed a fire extinguisher and tried to put out the fire. In the process he suffered burns to his left arm, shoulder, and head. Most are 2nd degree with a couple of spots that are 3rd degree. He said he barely got out in time. The house is heavily damaged.

This is a very traumatic time for the Carders and they will have many needs arise that may not be covered by insurance. If you would like to give a special gift to them you can email me at centerpointediscipleship@comcast.net
Please make it a priority to pray for them regularly and if you can help during this time please email me! if you would like to encourage the family post your comments here and we will make sure he sees them!
