🚨💙 AT 8:30 TONIGHT, THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WILL SAY ONE BOY’S NAME — XAVIER.

Three months ago, a baseball struck 12-year-old Xavier Taylor in the neck.

Seconds later, he collapsed.

His heart stopped.

And the little boy who went to the ballfield that day still has not opened his eyes.

But tonight, something powerful is happening.

At 8:30 p.m. Eastern, Xavier’s family is asking people across the country to stop whatever they are doing and pray together.

They’re calling it:

“RISE UP AND XAVE.” 💙⚾🙏

Because after three months, Xavier’s family is still waiting.

Still hoping.

Still believing.

And somewhere along the way, this stopped being just one family’s fight.

It became America’s fight to remember one little boy.

Bridges have been illuminated blue.

Baseball teams have worn his No. 6.

His jersey has hung in dugouts.

Bats have appeared on front porches.

People who have never met Xavier have learned his name — and started praying for him.

Think about that.

Somewhere tonight, a stranger who has never heard Xavier laugh may close their eyes and pray for him.

A family hundreds of miles away may say his name at the dinner table.

A church may pause to remember him.

A baseball team may look at No. 6 and think of the little boy still fighting.

💔 THREE MONTHS.

Three months of hospital rooms.

Three months of waiting.

Three months without hearing their son’s voice.

Three months of waking up every morning wondering:

“Could today be the day Xavier wakes up?”

And yet his family continues to pray.

They continue to believe.

They continue to hold onto hope.

Tonight, they are asking everyone who has stood beside Xavier to stand with him once again.

At the same time.

For the same child.

For the same miracle.

Whatever your faith looks like, take a moment tonight to imagine what this means to Xavier’s parents.

After three exhausting months beside their son, knowing that thousands of people they may never meet are stopping to say:

“We haven’t forgotten Xavier.”

🙏 Pray for his body.

🙏 Pray for his brain.

🙏 Pray for healing.

🙏 Pray for his parents.

🙏 Pray for strength during another night of waiting.

And pray for the miracle his family refuses to stop believing is possible.

Because sometimes, hope is the only thing a family can hold onto.

And sometimes, the smallest prayer can carry the biggest love.

💙 Xavier, tonight they are saying your name all across America.

You are not forgotten.

You are not alone.

Your No. 6 is still being worn.

Your story is still being told.

And people are still standing with you.

RISE UP, XAVE. 💙⚾🙏

If you’re standing with Xavier tonight, leave a 💙 below.

Let his family see just how many people are praying for their boy.
