My family, who lived in Estonia for two years, got word last night that several of "their girls" were involved in a very tragic car accident in Estonia.
Liis, Triin, and Iiris were sisters who were part of the solid support of the young church in Tallin, Estonia. They were often at the Banks home (also missionaries in Estonia, until about a year ago), an extension of their family really. My family has loved, served with and lived with the Banks to the point that their pain is mine.
Mom, dad, Kayli and Amber also knew these girls very well and love them deeply.Their hearts are broken as they have learned that Liis was killed on impact. They were traveling from a church function back to their home and dangerous conditions mixed with driver error caused Liis and several others to be killed immediately, including two children and the driver of the vehicle they were in.
Iriis is in very critical condition, very possibly never to walk again.
Triin was not involved in the accident, thankfully.
I didnt know these girls personally, but their impact on many that I love is felt deeply. My prayers are with them. And, I also pray for comfort and peace for those who are so far away from those they wish they could be with right now.
Love you Kendalls, Banks..and Liis' family
