School Faces Attack for Prayer over Sick Child
It’s a mighty sad day in America when professional football players can take a knee to protest the national anthem, but high school football players can’t take a knee to pray for a sick little girl.
Football fans, coaches and players in Lake City, Michigan, formed what they called a “family circle” on the field August 30 to pray for the young daughter of one of the coaches. The little girl is hospitalized fighting a serious illness.
The school district has been holding “family circles” for more than a decade. It’s an opportunity for coaches to recognize players after a game. Typically, prayer is not a part of the post-game gathering.
