Calling all Prayer Warriors!

I got word this weekend that one of the teachers from Sioux Central (where I taught last year) has had a tough week and has a long road ahead of him. Chris Smith's mom died last week. I guess he was hanging in there, but the day after the viewing, his left hand/arm was numb. He was taken to the ER in Fort Dodge and he ended up going up to Mayo. Chris had a stoke and the doctors found 12 tumors in his brain. He has been told that there is no cure for these tumors. It seems that it is the tumors which are causing the bleeding in his brain and the headaches. Please pray especially for Chris that he can get through this and be back to full speed! Also pray for his wife and son as this is a big shock. Latestly, please lift up the teachers and students at the school. Chris was well loved by all the students, especially as a coach. It's going to be hard on them when they find out the news.
Chris is the red one on the right. This is at a HS track meet.
