Tragedy in Mexico City

Two weeks ago Monica's sister in Mexico City was killed in a horrible car accident. Monica has yet to tell us all the details of what happened other than to say it was a terrible unjust thing that happened, but she's struggling with why God has let this happen. Her sister left a devastated husband and two darling little boys ages 4 and 2. Since the accident Monica has been caring for these little boys, no small task for her. Monica has two teen age girls, and tell us that these little BOYS are ALL BOY! She's exhausted, not able to go anywhere, and is having a hard time getting any work done! We understand, don't we! Monica is a single mom, and does sewing in her home, so caring for these little guys has made it very difficult for her to do any sewing. Her sister had accepted Christ as her savior and just the other day, Monica led her brother in law to the Lord. This evening I visited Monica and while I was there her brother in law came for his boys. He couldn't stop hugging and kissing them. They were ready to go PLAY, but Dad wanted more hugs and kisses. PRAY for Eduardo. I never caught the 4 year old's name (it's a very unusual name), but the little one is Edgar. As you can imagine, he's struggling right now and suffering terribly. And we may never know why all this has happened.
