A testimony

So a few of you have heard of our wonderful testimony that happened last weekend...for those who haven't here it is...

Last weekend we were with our youth group at a winter retreat. Gregory went along--yeah we're crazy people just because of that...on Saturday night Gregory was scooting down the stairs. Of course he wasn't looking where he was going and he scooted right off the edge of the stairs (under the railing--that had a good 6 inch gap between it and the stairs). He free fell about 8 feet onto a linoleum floor. Neither Tom or I saw it happen, but one of the other adult leaders did--he said in his mind he caught him but in reality he didn't get there in time. So Todd picked up Gregory and brought him to me. He was bleeding out of his mouth and crying like crazy of course. After all of this it ended up that he just had a small cut on his chin and somewhere inside his mouth he was cut. After just a day or two he was completely back to normal and the small bruise on his cheek was gone as well. Such a miracle that nothing more happened to him. No concussion, no broken bones and hardly any bruising. Praise the Lord that the angels kept Gregory safe.

This is a picture of where Gregory went off the stairs...he was maybe down one or two steps from the top.
