A personal message from Drake & Joy

In support of
Leah Catlin's Burn Support

A few days ago we felt a calling. It wasn’t comfortable. We wanted to resist. We knew it would be impossibly hard but we also knew we needed to listen.

Yesterday, we returned to the campsite where Leah’s accident happened. We spent some time sitting at the feet of Jesus and praying. We spent time in worship. We let HIM work on our hearts and redeem this space. We refuse to let a place have a hold on us. We refuse to have a fear of fire. We choose a spirit of freedom.

We brought our bikes and visited the horses and the dogs. Leah got to walk some of her favorite puppies. She played on the playground, where we met some new friends who heard about the girl who fell in the fire over the summer. And we had a campfire. Leah wasn’t a fan of the fire (obviously) but we reminded her over and over that she was safe. We were proud of her and her resilience.

“ The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the LORD for the display of his splendor. They will rebuild the ancient ruins and restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities that have been devastated for generations.”Isaiah 61:1-4 NIV

Ways to pray!

Leah’s contractures especially her pinky are getting worse by the day. Pray for miraculous healing.

Conscious sedation appointment is first thing tomorrow (Monday, 20/26/26) morning. Pray that blisters and sores are healed so a good cast can be made.
