On Wednesday, June 23, about 10:45pm Nate Payne was traveling home on HWY 59 after helping his dad at their fireworks stand at the CVs grocery store in Gravette, AR, when he was hit head on by a car traveling the other direction. He was air lifted to a local hospital with a compound fracture to his right leg, a shattered right ankle, and a broken left arm. He under went surgery on his left leg to insert a rod and will be needing surgery again in the following days and weeks to repair his arm and ankle. Nate is an incredible hard working young man. He and his family have been apart of our community for many years serving at New Life Ranch and in the community of Colcord helping less fortunate families and children through many outreach Programs. Their love for Jesus shines through everything they do. Anyone that knows the Paynes knows that they serve God and others with selflessness and kindness. Nate is an avid outdoorsmen who loves hunting fishing and helping his family. I hear he is a pretty good cook as well. I would like to ask that each of you whether you know them or not to show this family how much they are loved by giving, even if its just a couple dollars.
