Justin Martinez



Please pray for one of our team members, Justin Martinez from Schaumburg, IL. Justin was involved in an accident on his motorcycle on Sunday night. He was severely injured and is in critical, but stable condition at a hospital near Milwaukee. A number of his teammates witnessed the accident.
Justin is a young man who attended a number of our soccer camps over the years and who had just played his first collegiate soccer game on Friday night against Ashford. Our team will miss him a great deal over the next few weeks. I have always enjoyed Justin since I met him at soccer camp in 2004. His number has been in my phone for over a year now and I always looked forward to hearing how his soccer matches were going and how he was doing. As most freshmen, Justin was having a little trouble adjusting to the college game, but he was improving quickly and was always willing to do exactly what I asked him to work on. We are hoping and praying to see him back on our sideline by the end of the season. - C

We prayed for Justin today in our staff devotions here at WCS. It's comforting to know that we're all in God's hands.
