Would be good to post this in the prayer thread also

 

Anytime I see or hear the amber alerts I cringe, I hate it when people with personal issues use children to make an agenda.

 

Sick folks, just sick. Prayers for the child's safe recovery and apprehension of the criminal.

 

So very sad, can only hope that turns out positively.

 

Does that article say 13yo girl and her son?

 

That's what I thought

 

That is what I was going to ask. It definitely reads that way.

 

Here's the link to the story.

You guys interpreted it right. It's a 13 year old girl and her son.

It's hard to understand but let's just hope they're returned unharmed.
