“Issac remains in very critical condition. His physicians have told Paul and Angie that the next 24-48 hours will determine a lot. Right now we just have to wait and see how Issac responds. Please specifically pray that Issac shows some neurological activity during this time. Pray for decreased swelling and that his organs will be strong. Please also pray for Paul and Angie and all the people that love Issac. We know, Issac is a FIGHTER and our Lord has his hands on him. All students are encouraged to wear BLUE AND GOLD tomorrow to show support.”

“Wolverine Nation, our opponent this coming week is Wren. But right now, I implore you to pray for them and for their running back, Isaac, who is fighting for his life after a tragic car accident. Football means absolutely nothing right now, only a young man’s life. Let’s show Wren, and Isaac, we have their back. Pray that the Lord will put his healing hand on this young man. Wren family, Wolverine Nation is with you during your time of need. Isaac, keep fighting buddy!”
