18-year-old Christian cyclist dies

An 18-year-old Christian cyclist from Switzerland has died while competing in the World Championships in Zurich.

Muriel Furrer was competing in a junior race when a bad crash in a wooded area left her with an eventually fatal brain injury. No one had witnessed the accident and she had been lying in the area before she was found during the next race. Furrer had regularly spoken of her faith on social media, with her Instagram profile declaring ‘all things through Christ’. She regularly posted about how God had helped her during competitions.
