Thanks everyone. I'm just now seeing this thread and was shocked! But I'm humbled by your thoughts and your kindness.
My son is fine and he's back at camp. He was playing football and collided with another kid's forehead with his chin. The camp nurse said it was too bad for taping it, and after seeing it for myself, I agreed.
I took him to the ER but he was upset, as tonight was the last night of youth camp. He tried hurrying the doc but three hours and nine stitches later, we were just too late. But they had a special midnight service, and he was showered and dressed to go!
He has a 1-1 1/2 inch gash under his chin that had a hole in it that they had to stitch on the inside. He didn't wince or make a sound....I couldn't look.....LOL!
Thanks again everyone. It could have been worse, like chipping teeth or biting his tongue in two, but God was in control and left him with a minor battle scar.

Battle wounds worth bragging about :-)

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:
There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
Every sinner must repent of their sins.
That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
I didn't see this thread until just now... So glad he's okay!
When you come & visit, your son & mine will, I'm sure, compare battle wounds! LOL It'll give 'em somethin' to do.
