We in the Mennonite/Anabaptist community have all been deeply saddened by the death of the 5 Schrock children in Chewelah, WA as a result of that fatal head-on collision. We just want to put our arms around Jeff and Caroline at this time in prayer and support. As I was thinking about the whole happening today on our family’s usual 2 hour drive home from church, I was reminded of a song that I heard on the music album “Launch Out” by the Sunshine Valley Quartet. It goes like this:

So many questions, that go unanswered.

Why pain and heartaches on every hand?

Who has the courage to keep on going?

Why all these troubles; who understands?

Chorus:

There is an answer to every question

There are no secrets; our Savior sees

He had the courage to keep on going

Up Calvary’s mountain for you and me.

BTW, if you’d like to donate something to help the family with Jeffrey Schrock’s medical bills, you can send donations to the Pine Grove Mennonite Church – Jeff Schrock Fund, 2784 A Clarke Road, Chewelah, Wash., 99109.
