| 2 Men, 1 Capsized Boat, 4 Hours This is a Praise the Lord request! My dad and a friend who was visiting from out of town went out on a lake -- a big lake in a state park in Florda, the weather was bad, the water rough -- if the friend hadn't been in town visiting & plans made weeks in advance, my dad would have never have been there. But my dad & Randy set out to spend the WHOLE DAY fishing. They had been fishing for about 2 hours, and caught some fish even though it was rough water. Well things got even rougher when the boat capsized! Everything was thrown out. My dad & Randy clung to the boat - they were in the middle of this huge lake, no one else was out on the water - everyone else paid attention to the weather. My dad had a cell phone in his pocket - but once in the water it was ruined. Randy had left his phone in the truck - as he already knew he couldn't get service out at this lake. They figured it would take 4 hours or more to drift to the shore. My mom wasn't worried - she was out shopping - Not sure where Randy's wife was - I thinking visiting old friends (they used to live in the area) 4 hours later, in the cold, rough water, my dad & Randy were still hanging on, but not near the shore, when God sent 2 ANGELS -- 2 men, who had not been to that lake in over 5 years, 2 men, who like my dad & Randy - were strong Christian men who serve others in ministry. These 2 men saved my dad's life!! While my dad's main focus is serving as an elder in his church, heading up a search committee to find a new pastor, being the front man for lots of other church things & continually serving with a ministry that reaches children living at the dump in Managua, Nicaragua. These 2 angels have a ministry called Good Sam -- I'm not exactly sure who their ministry reaches - but this week they were more than Good Samaritans to my father & Randy!!!! Please join me in praising God for what they did. Please pray that the Godly work of all 4 men will be blessed!

| WOW! Our God is an AWESOME GOD! HE loves us so much. Just think, He sent your Dad's angels to him right when he needed them. God is so good to us.
