Please pray for a dear friend in Carmen Bajo

Late last week our hosts received a call from Rocio, one of the staff members of the Compassion project, telling them that her son Danny (27 yrs) had been in a car accident in Guayaquil and was in a coma.

Rocio made arrangements to head down there right away to be with her son, but sadly, yesterday she called to inform us that Danny had passed away.

Many of you who have been to Carmen Bajo know Rocio and have felt her warm and joyful demeanor. This sudden loss is a terrible shock for her and for the community. Danny's body is being brought back to Quito, and funeral arrangements are being made.

Your prayers for Rocio and her family at this time would be much appreciated. Please pray that the rest of the family will come together in unity alongside Rocio as they remember Danny's life.

This is a picture I took of Rocio 2 weeks ago:
