This family needs our prayers. John Powell, a 38-year-old Texas pastor, pulled over on the roadside with his passenger to help some other people involved in a car crash. As they got out to help, a semi-truck came toward them and John pushed his passenger out of the way and was struck and killed. A friend who knew John well said, “In true form, this servant and gentle leader we all knew and love gave his life so that others may live.” The Bible tells us, “Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints” (Psalm 116:15). Please pray for John’s wife, Katherine, and their four children during this very difficult time—may the Lord comfort and help them. Also pray for the church he pastored, Emmanuel Baptist Church in New Caney.
