Requesting Prayers for Friends

I would like to ask you to pray for Jeff and Missy Underwood and their three boys. Jeff and Missy are dear friends of mine and Wendy's from college and fellow Campus Outreach alumni.



Earlier this week while vacationing with their family at a state park in Arkansas Missy had an accident where she fell from a cliff onto rocks below. It was miraculous that she survived the fall, but even more miraculous how God has watched over her and cared for her throughout this whole situation. She has broken two vertebra in her back, most of her ribs, and has a tear on her liver.

Through God's grace Missy has not only stabilized this week, but has improved enough to be moved out of ICU to a normal hospital room. Please pray for Missy and her family. This will be a long road to recovery. Jeff asks that we pray...
  • Pray for protection from infection!
  • Pray for her lungs to clear up!
  • Pray for God to work in the lives of others through these series of events to make Himself know!
In the words of Jeff, "I stand amazed at the feet of a truly awesome God, full of love and grace."

Update from Jeff Underwood:
Missy update, Monday June 18. Missy is making great progress. Today was busy. She had 31 staples removed from her back. She met with the physical therapist and also with the occupational therapist. Incredibly she made blueberry muffins today. God is good. He is faithful to answer prayers. Missy is scheduled to go home Thursday. That will be exactly 3 weeks after surgery. I stand amazed at the feet of an awesome God. Please pray for the transition, pray for strength, pray for no infections, lung issues or blood clot issues. I can't tell everyone how much we all appreciate your prayers and support.
