Protection - Toby's Story

Toby Surratt, along with his wife, Shannon, and their 3 children, have been attending Red Fork Church of God for a long while. Toby plays the drums in our worship band, and was a big help during our two Faith In Action campaigns. As a matter of fact, if you're a regular attendee at Red Fork, you'd be hard pressed to imagine what our church would be like without the Surratt Family. But, earlier this October we were faced to ponder that thought. What would Red Fork, our lives, our church family, our worship, and our experiences with God as a body of believers be like if Toby or his family wasn't with us?

Toby and his two youngest children were in a roll-over automobile accident. Their mid-sized SUV was clipped, spun out, rolled over, and demolished. But, amazingly, Toby and his children escaped with only minor injuries. Toby credits the protection of God and the prayers of his church family at Red Fork for his family's safety.

"We're so blessed to be here this morning. God's a protector. He surrounded us with strangers at the scene that were totally willing to help me get my babies out of the car. He surrounded us with some of the people we love the most, friends and family, Pastor Brent, Pastor Dale, Pastor Josh.... people that we love so much..... we're so thankful."
