If you can donate , pray or even just share this he and his family greatly appreciate it !






On June 29th, my brother, Ben Snelling, was doing what any parent would do for their children - protecting them. His 2 youngest boys were out playing with a neighbor when a pit bull charged after the 5-year-old, biting him. The dog was put away but came back out and charged for the 3-year-old. Ben stepped in to do what any father would, and his right (dominant) arm was mangled.

Ben is the provider of his family and this has left him without being able to provide successfully. He has lost use of the arm and hand after going through one surgery already. He is looking at another surgery to replace the muscle and tendons to get possibly 70-85% use again. This will all take time, leaving him and his family with everyday living expenses and doctor's bills stacking up. No amount is too small and if not able to donate, please keep him and his family in your prayers and share.
