The community is urged to gather Monday afternoon downtown to pray for Suzanne Williams, Director of the Smithville-DeKalb County Chamber of Commerce who is hospitalized in east Tennessee with a serious injury.
According to family, while at a conference in Gatlinburg on Wednesday, Suzanne fell in the bathroom of her hotel room and landed on her throat across the tub crushing vital organs and leaving her unable to breathe on her own. She was taken to a Sevierville hospital for treatment in the intensive care unit and placed on a ventilator.
At last report, her condition was stable with no brain damage and plans are to remove the ventilator Monday. At the moment, her injury is apparently not life threatening but the community is encouraged to pray for Suzanne’s continued healing and strength for the long road of recovery ahead of her.
Please come to the east side of the courthouse for fellowship and prayer from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Monday, October 9 or in the basement of the courthouse in case of rain.
Fellowship Prayers will be offered every 10 minutes. This is open to the public. Come for a few minutes or stay as long as you wish. If unable to attend, please join in spirit and pray where you are for Suzanne and her family.
