Natalee Holloway Update

    Praying Friends,
    God is continuining to show His faithfulness. He is gracious and kind. Sunday we had a scare with a "bloody mattress" thinking that it might have been related to Natalee missing, but it was not. Tonight we received news from Fox News that the suspects were being charged with murder, only to hear shortly afterward that the spokesperson had wrongly spoken their English while speaking to foreign reporters and there has not been reason to suspect that Natalee is not alive.

    Please keep praying faithfully, sharing this need with any believer in your address book. My sister Robin arrived in Aruba safely on Sunday and has been
    used by God to bring much needed encouragement to her husband Dave, the father of Natalee. Through all of this, God's name is being proclaimed and the hope that we have in Him. Our hope is not based on Him doing what we feel is best, but in knowing that God Almighty will do what is best!

    Your prayers are making a difference! Thanks too for your words of encouragement sent to my sister and Dave. Her email address is rholloway@comcast.net. In speaking with Robin tonight, they are tired, but encouraged. Pray that God will continue to give them a relentless spirit to keep searching! We are a team! Keep on keepin' on!

My heart goes out to Natalee and her family. I have become attached to this story. Being a 22 year old from Birmingham Alabama, this hits too close to home. The only thing that I have watched on TV since May 31st is Fox News and MSNBC, I'm waiting for the recovery of Natalee. I have faith that they will find her alive and well.

Here is a prayer:

Lord God, Heavenly Father, please bring Natalee home to her family safely. Watch over her and her family in this desperate time of need. Give her family the strength to go on searching for this innocent young lady. In your precious name we pray. Amen.

I pray that Natalee,s family has the strength to see this through. I lost my only son seven years ago and I still have a hard time. I think that we need to boycot all travel to ARUBA. Perhaps then, when they are hurt in the economy, they will put some real effort into getting Joran to tell the truth. Why is he not being given a lie detector, or don,t they have them on ARUBA?

Hear My Cry, Lord Jesus!

God Of Mercy, help the Holloway Family!
“With the Lord there is mercy” Psalm 130:7

Lord Jesus, in my time of trial and sorrow I turn to you once again. For in prayer there is hope and comfort – and I am in great need of both right now. Hear these words and ease the ache in my heart, for I am troubled in mind and spirit!

Lord Jesus, let your loving kindness take away the pain. Give this family faith in your power to find Natalee and strength to face what the future may hold. Natalee is in your caring hands now, and I trust in you to do what is best.

For you see the whole, Lord Jesus, where we see only a part, and your plan for us is beautiful and perfect. Please stay with Natalee and guide those looking for her as instruments of your wisdom. Far I know that Natalee can be found through your miracles!

Hear my cry, Lord Jesus, as I call on you to bless Natalee in this hour of need. May your tender mercy bring comfort and peace to her family! I pray with deep faith in your gentle power, Lord Jesus!

Thank you, Lord Jesus, with all my heart and soul. May thy will be done!

In Lord Jesus, beautiful name – Amen.

Hello from N.S.Canada
Natalee, we believe that god is with you and as every moment passes another prayer is sent his way. Not a day passes without you on our minds and in our prayers. To the loved ones of Natalee, our faith in god is our hope to finding her and to the world, it only takes a moment to bow our heads in prayer to ask god to guide Natalee to a safe return home. Please, we ask of you, pray for Natalee and her family, that they are given the strength to continue in the search to reunite with their loving daughter. We love you Natalee, please come home.

Ever since Natalee went missing I think about her and her family everyday. If I could be there to help with the search I would be there. I think the whole Dutch court system is a joke and something needs to be done. Her mom and dad and step-parents have been amazing consider the situation. Every American's blessing is with the family. God bless

Not a day goes by that my heart does not ache for the Holloway/Twitty family and all of the other parents in the nation who have lost their children. May God grant each of you the strength to continue on in the search for your children and the guidance to bring them home safely.

Always in my prayers.....

To the Holloway/Twitty Families.

I want you to know that all of you are in my thoughts and prayers daily. I just cannot believe that the Aruban and Netherlands authorities are doing virtually nothing to bring this terrible crime to a end. I have and I shall write to the Hague and to the authorities in Aruba. I just wish I could do more for all of your families. I shall continue to hope and pray for all of you. God Bless You. The quilty will pay for what they have done. If not here on earth, then in the hereafter. I firmly believe this. Peace and Love, my dear Beth and your entire family.
