Meanwhile, back at the ranch...

While Vicki is busy giving birth, Drew has his own story to tell. Drew is one of our two alumni interns, and also hired to work part time on the weekends as our Nightwatchmen. He was walking to work Friday morning, when two guys came after him with a knife trying to mug him! He got away, but they chased him down the street in the middle of broad daylight, while Drew ran for his life, (literally) shouting, "Help me! Somebody help me!"

No one stopped. No one honked. Here was this man, wildly waving cars down, and as though it was New York City, everyone just "minded their own business."

By God's answer to his plea, Derrick was running late for work and saw a man running towards cars, being chased in two directions by a couple of thugs. He said, "That's Drew!" Speeding into the 7-11, where Drew was just heading for safety, he managed to get him into the van and drive to work.

We are so thankful that we only have Vicki and baby to visit in the hospital, and not our Drew, too!

(As it turns out, there was one semi-good samaritan who called the police on their cell phone, but by the time they arrived on the scene, the men, and Drew, had fled.)
