One of our emc-ers works at the outdoor YMCA. On Sunday afternoon I received the call that one of his fellow employees had been tragically killed in a parachuting accident. Olen Reid Ashe, just 23, died instantly attempting his 299th jump. Reid had made a huge impact at the Y teaching climbing skills for the past two years.Today I was called in to speak to and pray with some of the staffers. Next Tuesday night I get the honor to be a part of a memorial service for Reid at the YMCA climbing wall.
Please keep this family in prayer. Without the strength of God bearing this burden would be impossible.
