I don't know if any of you know about Jacob Wetterling.
He was 11 when he was abducted at gunpoint October 22, 1989, from a small town about an hour west of us. He has never been found.
Yesterday and today there have been police and FBI personnel around the abduction site, and dump trucks being filled with dirt and hauled away.
Please join me in praying that after 21 years there may finally be some answers for Jacob's family.

I've been praying, Paula! The thought of this young boy's experience 21 years ago is the kind of thing that turns my mommy stomach inside out.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on this family!

Oh Paula,
This is dear to my heart since my best friend in MN went to school with Jacob!
I'll be praying hard!

There's been nothing official yet. Some people are saying the law enforcement focus is on the adult son (he was in 30's at the time) of the owners of the property where Jacob was abducted. He was actually abducted at the junction of the driveway and the road, less than 1/2 mile from his home. The police removed several dump trucks of dirt from the property, and many people now believe they are sifting through the dirt for DNA evidence.
I keep praying that after 20 years the Wetterling's will finally know where Jacob has been.

I am praying, I can imagine how important it must be for Jacob's family to finally have closure..we have a similar case in the Australian state I live in..to see the pain of the family not knowing, go on for years and years is truly horrible.
