Rev. Matthew is organizing this fundraiser for his mother as their family faces an overwhelming medical emergency. She was involved in a devastating boating accident when a boat capsized. After drowning and receiving more than 20 minutes of CPR, she was airlifted to a hospital in Fargo, where she remains in critical condition. A CT scan has revealed brain trauma caused by a lack of oxygen, and her loved ones are taking this one moment at a time while hoping and praying for healing.

During this critical time, the family is asking for help with medical bills and other household expenses as they focus on her care and the difficult days ahead. Rev. Matthew is reaching out for prayers, help, and support for his mother and for the whole family as they walk through this crisis together. Any donation, no matter the size, would mean so much and would help ease the financial burden they are facing right now. If you are not able to give, please consider keeping Rev. Matthew’s mother and family in your prayers and sharing this fundraiser with others.
