CHRIS COLLINSWORTH

Okay, so we have had tons of people calling and asking us about Chris Collinsworth. For those of you who don't know, he is one of Jim's former players. He played at BYU last season (basketball). The Collinsworth family took Lainey and Trey every single day, all day when I was on bed rest with Porter. They took them to all of the basketball games and everything. The boys, Chris and Kyle took to Trey and would do exercises with him daily. They got Trey really moving. The family is amazing to say the least. For some reason they spit out these amazing athletes!!! Kyle is a Junior this year and is already being recruited by a lot of big-name teams.

Well, Chris is currently serving a mission in Australia. Last Tuesday he was attacked by a bunch of Muslim men on his mission. They think he may have been singled out because he is such a big person (6'9"ish). Chris was ready to get out working 2 days after the attack!!!(to which he was told NO!) What a tough guy!!!

So, if you will, pray for those 2 Elders and their families. They have all been through the ringer this last week. I feel bad for the moms who want to jump on a plane and go take care of their big boys, but know it is best if they leave them in the Lord's hands! (Chris was more upset he didn't get to tell Kyle himself, than he was about the actual attack! He later told Kyle to tell every girl that knew Chris, that he fought of 40 men and only got stabbed once!)

Here is a link to the spotlight featured on KSL if you want to watch!!!
