HOW I PRAYED FOR THE LOST BOY SCOUT

By Cosmo Coppola Rowell

I JUST TURNED TEN, and for a couple of years now, I have been praying for people that ask me for help. Sometimes I don't get very many people that ask, so now my mom and I watch the news together every day, and that gives me lots of ideas of who needs help and what to pray for. I really like finding stories about children that I can pray for because I would want people praying for me if I ever needed help.

Recently I was watching the news, and there was a story of a Boy Scout named Brennan Hawkins, who got lost in the mountains of Utah while he was on a camping trip. His parents were asking people to pray for him.
