Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin's Wife Terri. We Hope "Terri's Christian faith will help her cope with the grief and loss and to help guide her children."

Louise Heinrich : Sep 12, 2006  Street Life Ministries

"As the world has already heard, the world renowned Steve Irwin of the Crocodile Hunter fame from Australia Zoo died on Monday the 4th of September by a rare attack made by barb from the tail of a stingray that speared Steve in the heart as he was filming a wildlife documentary in far north Queensland."

"Chappy Dee (Dallas), a chaplain at the Australia Zoo, as he is affectionately known, had just called an unscheduled chapel service on the Monday morning around the same time as Steve Irwin's death even before anyone knew he had died. Dallas had called the chapel service to challenge the young people of our school to wrestle with the fact that none of us are immortal and that one day, any day, we may die and what would we say if we were to die today and faced God. The chapel service was rather timely and some would say a ‘God appointed prophetic moment’ in time especially as Dallas talked to our middle school students about how young people often take greater risks in their youth thinking that they are invincible and then they usually reach an age in their late 20's and realize that they are not living life just for themselves but they are here on earth for a purpose."

Steve Irwin's "American wife Terri is known around the area for making surprise visits to local churches bringing her children with her and at times they were able to go to Sunday school with a minder to keep them protected from being overwhelmed with questions and being crowded out by inquisitive kids and the like. It is hoped that Terri's Christian faith will help her cope with the grief and loss and to help guide her children to a deeper understanding of God's grace and mercy in this time of family sadness in the passing of their much loved husband and Dad."

"The world's attention was drawn to Steve Irwin, the Crocodile Hunter, both in life and death. Whilst it is not known whether Steve had a personal relationship with Jesus before his death, our prayers are that his wife and children will come to know Jesus in a more real and meaningful way as Steve's wife Terry, children Bindi and Bob, face life without their amazing husband, dad, and Australia's much loved Crocodile Hunter."

"May his life and the enthusiasm by which he lived it be a legacy for all of Australia and the rest of the world who will continue to benefit from his worldwide wildlife conservation work. May our prayers be with them and the 500 staff that work at the Australia Zoo as we mourn the passing of a truly inspiring man who made it his life work to care for and subdue many of God's creatures."
