Please Pray

One of my dearest friends' brother, Orhan,  age 24, was driving down a 4 lane highway for work when he accidentally hit a guy running across the road.  Although there was a pedestrian overpass very close by, it is not uncommon here for pedestrians to just cross the road, not matter how wide it is or haw many fences and barriers they have to scale to even get to the road.

Since the accident, two months ago, Orhan has been waiting in jail for his trial.  They had to wait to see what happened to the victim before they could assign charges and set a trial date.  The victim did eventually die.  So, Orhan goes on trial tomorrow for manslaughter.  He is facing life imprisonment.

Please, please pray for him and his family today and tomorrow.  Pray that the judge would have mercy on Orhan and declare him not guilty.  Pray that he would be set free.  Pray that Orhan, a very normal, out-going and fun, young man, would be able to heal from this horrible accident.  The whole family has really been suffering as, I'm sure, the victim's family has also.   So, please pray that they would all be able to move on and heal after this tragedy.  And, ultimately, please pray that the Lord would use this life-changing event to draw them to Him.
