My sister just called to tell me that my 8 year-old nephew's school principal committed suicide last night.  They cancelled school today and are arranging for grief counselors for Monday.  She was very popular and the kids will be devastated -- please keep them in your prayers.

Yes, this is a very sad situation.  Several children in my children's ministry go to that school.  I have a feeling there will be lots of questions to answer on Sunday so please pray for wisdom in how to help these children grieve.

Sarah --  I sent this article to my sister to help her figure out how to talk to my nephew and explain what suicide is.  You might find it interesting and helpful, too.  It's called Explaining Suicide To Children.
