What a day the last 18 hours have been. Yesterday right after dinner we received news from Nancy’s brother in London, that her sister in Woodstock has gone missing. I posted this update this morning to our prayer email list.
Brenda was last seen yesterday morning before leaving the house to go to work. She has suffered from bouts of depression and anxiety in the past, and had been working through one recently.
She apparently headed off to work yesterday morning, but never arrived, and the system at work showed that she had called in sick (it’s an automated system). When she didn’t arrive home by 6pm last night, David realized that she was missing. Police in Woodstock have searched all the places they/we thought she might go but have come up with nothing and have expanded their search. Her cell phone is off.
Obviously the family is in a state of shock and bewilderment. Please pray for safety and comfort for Brenda and especially that she would contact her family. Pray for the police as they search (they have been wonderful in starting their search so quickly) and for comfort for the families.
We are clinging to the hope that coincidentally we sung on Sunday morning…
Oh no You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no You never let go
In ev’ry high and ev’ry low
Oh no You never let go
Lord You never let go of me
Updates to follow…
