Community Prayer Circles will be held on the Wellfleet Town Hall Lawn EVERYDAY at 11am and 9pm. Let's put our healing thoughts and positive energy together and send it Caleb's way. As we all know, he is an incredibly strong person and can make it through the toughest of storms. With love...

I stopped by the prayers circle on Friday night with my daughter, who doesn't know the Potter family as she is younger than the boys, but had heard what happened and wanted to pray for Caleb too. Mostly friends of Calebs there talking a hugging. We didn't speak to anyone, just prayed and felt peace knowing that we were all there for the same special purpose. Watching Caleb and his brothers grow up, even from a distance, has often put a smile on my face. They are all unique and special young men; a wonderful reflection of their parents. Please know that our family is praying for yours. Caleb has shown how strong in spirit he is from the time he could speak, as I recall. In the face of this challenge, he will show no exception. God Bless,

Just got home from the "huge" prayer circle tonight. It was amazing - I certainly have 'washed ashore' to a wonderful community (i knew that ahead of time) all the way from Sandwich. Jennie, watch out, my 2-year old grand daughter has a crush on Caleb that he doesn't know about. She gets all excited and watches him when he comes to his Dad's house - she thinks he's working on her "two boats"......our love is with you all.

Hey everyone, GREAT NEWS about Caleb's progress!!!! As most of you know, I am in Haiti right now and every time I am here I have these crazy dreams...I had one the other night where Caleb rose out of the water like Neptune, wearing a funky Viking outfit and horned helmet, pounded his chest and walked accross the water and disapeared into the dunes! It was such a powerful image, and such a funny one..because he was cackling like a crazy man and swaggering like a pirate! And he winked at me! Anyway, I hope you are all well....I have an alter to him in my room at the art center here. I miss the prayer circles and my beloved community....we are SO lucky to have each other.
Sharon, Kai, Max, Jan, I think of you several times a day...and Caleb is always present in my prayers and heart which sometimes feels so big that it will explode! I can't wait to see you home safely Caleb. I love y'all. Lisa
My faith has been restored in God but mostly in humanity. Thank you Caleb for bringing us all together, sorry it had to be in such a horrific way. The Potter's, Jennie and your circle of friends are truely an inspiration to me. Caleb keep up the good fight and I can't wait to see you back in Fleet.
I was reading the surf forecast for North Carolina and saw a mention of Caleb's injury and a link to this blog. I am very sorry to hear about his accident but am inspired to read about the strenght and love of your community. We will send our prayers and thoughts your way. Take care.
Sharyn, your words are so prolific and so powerful. A distant friend of a friend, I continue to send my prayers, and read the blog to see Caleb's progress and often think of you and your incredible close and now extended family.
Please continue to keep updating. This is such a great way to communicate Caleb's progress and inevitable return to good health and to "Fleet." How blessed are thow to come from such a close knit community. Such power from within.
I imagine this is your diary, your journey with Caleb, your sanctity. You are strong and powerful beyond belief. I see it in your writings. And when you aren't feeling strong, please know that we are here pulling for you, sending you positive vibes, from friends and strangers alike. Hoping, wishing, praying, for your incredible Caleb to return to you.
Having never gone through something this myself, and having a son of my own, my heart goes out to you. I can't imagine what you must really be going through. It's wonderful what you share with the world. You are an awesome, strong, beautiful and incredible mother and an inspiration to us all.
Godspeed Ms. Sharyn
May the wind be always at your back and the sun be always on your face.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you now and always.
