Hello All,

On this day after Thanksgiving I am asking for your prayers. Dear friends of mine from high school were killed yesterday. Their brother walked into Thanksgiving Dinner with a gun and started shooting, My friends Carla and Lisa (twins) graduated with me from high school. They died at the scene along with a 6 year old cousin and an elderly aunt. Paul was obviously mentally ill but got away and is still on the loose. Please pray for the repose of their souls and that he is found so that the authorities can end this situation.

Carla and Lisa were Mennonite Catholics and had wonderful hearts. They loved to sing and had wonderful voices that gave glory to God.

Please keep them in your prayers.

____________________________________________________________ __________

Ladies,
Thank you so much for your prayers. He still has not been found, The killing was done in another county and he lives here in Miami Dade. Please keep praying.

-------------------------------------------------------

I just found out that Lisa's husband is in critical care and not expected to live. They now think that Paul (the shooter) has taken his life but they cannot find him. Thank you for storming heaven in our behalf.

--------------------------------------------------------

Ladies,

Very Late Saturday night, Paul was found, thanks to America's Most wanted! He was holed up in the Florida keys and was taken without incident. Please pray that he might find the help he needs and that his family may have some closure to this horrible ordeal.

Lisa's husband is still in critical care so please keep him on your prayer list too.

Oh, Mimi! I am sitting here feeling only horror and sadness.
I am begging God to let this man be found and contained.

May God grant eternal rest to their
souls and comfort to their family.

Oh, praying for Carla and Lisa and the repose of their soul - and also for surviving family who must be reeling from grief and how this all came about.
