I'd like to request some prayers for some grieving families.

The first is for the family of a teen from British Columbia who got killed under a helicopter crashing to the ground. Prayers also for the families of those who were in the helicopter.

The next makes me so sad I want to cry. And in fact, I have. A 37 year old woman was kidnapped from her home last Friday, very early morning. Her husband, a volunteer firefighter, returned home to find his wife gone, but their two children, ages 6 and 18 mos., sound asleep. There were signs of an altercation in the house. A surveillance video recorded a man dressed in black and in a ski mask taking money from an ATM from both the woman's and her husband's accounts. She was found on Sunday afternoon, her murdered body in an old house that had been abandoned for 20 some years. Please pray for the devastated families and friends.
