Pray for Boaz

I just got a prayer request from the Baka team in Cameroon.

"...yesterday I was interrupted by a loud cry from the area behind the house where the kids were playing.  Boaz Conrod, age 4, had fallen from the top of one of the fruit trees.  My stomach is doing somersaults again as I try to write about it. He appears to have a broken femur.  After a few phone calls and further evaluation, the Conrods began to quickly pack for a trip to Yaoundé.  None of the options are preferable at a time like this.  Do you drive over 4 hours on bumpy roads where more options are available or drive 45 minutes the other direction where there is some help but very limited.  Please join us in praying for his quick healing."

Boaz is the middle child of Nathan and Laurel.  Please pray that they would find the help they need, that Boaz would have releif of pain, that he would not suffer any complications, that a good treatment plan would be agreed upon, and that his leg would heal well and quickly.
The above picture is of Boaz with a jar containing a bug collection.

What a cutie! Boaz is doing pretty well, just bored wishing he could go outside and play. Thanks for posting this on your blog. We praise God for the network of prayer support we've received!
