Tragedy at Virginia Tech

As most of you have seen in the news, tragedy hit Virginia Tech with 31 reported dead and others injured. We just thought that we would let you know that our family is fine. However, of greater concern is the community of Blacksburg. Please be praying for this community as we begin the grieving process. We can't imagine what those people who experienced this first hand are going through but know that they can find healing through the Lord. Please join with us as we lift the burdens of HIS people up to Him that they may find the peace that only He can provide.

Thank you for keeping us informed. I was worried for you and your family, when I heard the tragic news. We are praying for your town and all the families affected by this tragedy. How sad and senseless :(

Message for Rob :) --- I read in an article on abcnews that the family attended a Korean Presbyterian church where they live. Perhaps someone from your group could contact the pastor of that church and explain that you want to send messages. There is a woman named Lisa in Christiansburg who may be organizing a list of messages on a wider scale. She has commented on my blog and you can click on her name there to get to her blog.
