My husband is a missionary with FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students) and works on a campus in Colorado. We live practically on campus, directly across the street in fact. This evening, I got a text message from a female student forwarded from campus police warning everyone to be on top alert because gang initiations are this week (we have the highest concentration per capita of gang members in the whole nation) and one of their tasks is to r*pe a college student. Please, would you all pray for the safety of the women on our campus and also for myself and my 3 girls (I'm only 25 and commonly mistaken for a student) during this time and especially tonight as my husband is out of town on business? I always have a hard time when he is gone over night, I'm so paranoid...but now I'm not sure how I'm going to sleep!!
Anyway, thank you for the prayers!

I've been thinking of you and praying for you all night, Andrea!! Please tell me you're ok, the girls are ok, and that nothing tragic has happened on campus.......
Is your husband coming home today?
I'm still begging St. Michael to camp out on that campus!
