Hi all,
Greg, the boys, and I (Donny) just left Missy and Annie at the hospital. We have been working hard to day to get some logistical things accomplished. We were able to get the boys out to a fun restaurant today. They have done so well after being cooped up for over 2 days. We have arranged a vehicle for the Woods thanks to Macedonian Call Foundation and we are still working on our long-term housing options. Pray that this would be resolved quickly.
Annie was able to leave the room a good bit today and ride around the hospital in a wagon. We will try to post a video and some more pictures later tonight. She is doing very well considering the circumstances. Her hand is itching and and she is having a hard time getting comfortable.
Greg and Missy are checking your comments frequently. It means a lot to them and the boys are loving seeing that people all over the world are leaving comments.
This blog was started in 2004 when Annie was badly burnt. Over the years we have seen how God has continually provided for us and answered our many prayers.
WOW, you guys... what an awesome family we have! the hairs on my arms were sticking straight up as i scrolled thru your comments and saw people literally all over the world praying for you guys. God is amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for praying for us... we are now praying for you guys. God is so good and you are going to see just how good thru all of this. We are praying for a quick and miraculous recovery.. and for no scarring. God can do anything :)
love you guys,
Cody & Amy Spahr
Missy, this is Mindy's friend, Tracey. I am so sorry that your Annie is going through such an alarming and painful ordeal. Please know that she has been and will continue to be lifted up in prayer, along with you and the rest of the family. I know your faith is strong and I'm sure you feel God's arms wrapped around all of you. I pray that God will grant you His comfort and strength and bring healing to Annie's body.
ReplyDeleteHi Annie,
ReplyDeleteWe are praying for you as we heard about your accident from our Sunday School class at our church in Conroe Texas. We pray that you will heal real fast and all the sore spots won't hurt anymore. Do everything the nurses and doctors ask you to do so you can get better and get out of the hospital real soon. Hope you have all kinds of yummie jello and ice cream treats to eat too. God loves you very much and lots of people are praying for you. The Walker Family, Randy, Susan, Michelle, & Melissa.
Annie we are so glad you were able to go in a ride in your wagon today. Drew and Hannah are happy you boys were able to get out and get some good food..(always important!) During our prayers tonight we thanked God for such an amazing family as the Wood family! I know He is holding you. We miss you and love you! Hugs and Kisses. The Turner Family
ReplyDeleteWe are praying for you and know God is hearing all the prayers that are being lifted up for Annie. We pray that He heals her completely and that she will have minimal pain. Feel God's love through all these people praying for you. God is awesome. Love to you all, praying continually, Brenda, Rob Case & family

Our hearts broke when we heard about Annie's terrible accident on Saturday. We have been praying ever since and have asked people from TN to FL to pray with us. Praise God for His hand at work on Annie's burns and all of His provisions for every need! We will continue to pray for perfect healing and perfect peace.

I learned of your situation through Steve and Holly. I'm praying for a full recovery and for the name of our Lord to be magnified and glorified, both in your lives and in the lives of those whom you serve. May the peace of God reign in your hearts.
ReplyDeleteWe received the email from Doug and Dana and have passed it on to prayer warriors, in addition to our church family at Jodeco Baptist, Stockbridge GA. We have watched the process as God has already performed miracles. Just remember, God does not perform half-way miracles. We continue to watch and pray as God is glorified. We love you, Mr. Jim & Mrs. Laura
ReplyDeleteGreg, Missy and sweet little Annie,
ReplyDeleteWe are so sorry this happened to all of you. We are continually praying for you and want you to know that we are here for anything you may need. Please don't hesitate to ask. We will be praying for strength for all of you as I know that it must be heartbreaking to see your little precious child hurting.
Love you all,
Joel and Dana Sprouse
Dear Missy,
ReplyDeleteMy name is KC Brock, and I am a good friend of Kim Scruggs, sister to your friend Dawn (not sure of last name, but lives in NC) Our family just wanted you to know that your family is supported here in Columbia,TN in love and prayers. My kids would love to send Annie some mail to help cheer her up. Is there an address at the hospital where we could send a package? I know that things are hard and emotional, frustrating and trying, but know that you are not alone. Your sweet Annie is dear and precious to Our Heavenly Father who holds her tightly in the palm of His Hand. We support you in Christian love and heartfelt prayers.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI am Pr Marcus and I live in Brazil, where I met Pr John Weaver and his family. He sent me an e-mail and I would like to let you know that I am praying for Annie too. May God bless all your family.
"And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose" (Rm 8:28).
Hi, Woods Family,
ReplyDeleteThis is Sarita Edgerton and family. We are praying so hard for you and little Annie. May God grant you all peace beyond understanding. After being a part of God's miracle myself this year and almost dying giving birth to our 4th and last, I can attest to His divine intervention. He is still in the business of healing. My church at First Baptist Hendersonville is praying for you. Maybe this will jog your memory. You kept our oldest daughter, Isabela, for us while you were pregnant with Annie and she took her first steps for you! We missed it but you didn't. Now Isabela has prayed for your little girl. Many blessings to you! You will be on our hearts!
Dear Woods family -
ReplyDeleteThere are prayer warriors here in Alabama who are lifting Annie up in prayer. My husband, Andrew, is Holly M's brother. We are so thankful for those who answer the call to foreign missions. And I believe that God is holding each of you close during this time, as he heals Annie's body and pours out his blessings on each of you.
We will continue to pray for your family in the days ahead. God bless you!
Love in Christ from Andrew, Carissa, Murray, and Amber Callan
Just wanted to let you know we're praying for all of you from Ecuador. We are so sorry to hear of Annie's accident, but we know God is in control and are so thankful to hear of her care. (Matt's happy to hear the Texans are taking good care of you :-)
ReplyDeleteWe have been keeping up with you all with each of your monthly updates. We love and miss you guys.

Hi Annie! My name is Jennifer and I am a friend of Mr. Donny's. I have kept in touch with his family ever since high school graduation! You are such a beautiful little girl. I can tell you are really tough, too, just by looking in your eyes. Just remember to hold on tight to God's hand. He's got you!
ReplyDeleteIn Christ's Love,

To the Woods and sweet Annie,
ReplyDeleteI have been receiving updates from the Weavers(my parents are members of the church where Pamela's dad is pastor). We are the Owens (Jeff, Candy, Nathaniel, Piper and Tanner) and are praying for Annie and the entire family. We do know that God is awesome and works miracles everyday, even when we are too busy to notice. A special prayer for momma as she is strong for Annie, the boys and spouse. We have added you to our prayer group at Johns Creek Baptist Church near Atlanta.
Sincerely,
The Owens'
