[Magdalen] Prayer Request Update--The Lost is Found!

[Jay Weigel]

Elizabeth Thomas, the 15 year old Tennessee girl who was kidnapped by her
teacher last month, has been found unharmed in a remote area of northern
California. Her kidnapper was with her and was arrested. The Tennessee
Bureau of Investigation was sending one of its planes for her and she could
be reunited with her family as soon as tomorrow. Tad Cummins, the
kidnapper, faces a number of federal and state charges and is being held in
the Siskiyou County jail in California awaiting hearings.

Please pray for Beth's mental health as she reunites with her family. We
may remember Elizabeth Smart, who was found a year after being kidnaped and
somehow seems to have survived mostly unscathed, but she may have been
somewhat stronger than this young lady, who had already survived  abuse
from her own mother. Also please pray that the justice system will deal
with Tad Cummins as he deserves.
