A secretary at the seminary, whose teenage son has been missing for 2 days, received a phone call last night from the kidnappers. They asked for a ransom in order to let him go. The ransom is 500,000 LE (approx. 83,000 USD). The family is devastated and helpless. I beg for your prayers for them and for the boy. May God show mercy on them all! Please remember them in your prayers.
As you have probably seen on the news, Egypt has seen a lot of turmoil over the past year and an increase in kidnappings and Christian persecution are a direct result. Please keep our Christian brothers and sisters around the world in your prayers!!!
My cousin, Colby, her husband, Wageeh, and their kids, Alexander and Adam
