I’ve been trying to get my head around the event’s in Japan and write something of substance.  I can’t.  It is mind boggling and heart breaking.

Enough said. Please pray for these people, and help if you can.

Also another plea to continue praying for Marizela Perez and family, missing since March 5. Update at Michelle Malkin. (Marizela's cousin) God is my witness, I have never asked anyone to forward anything in my life.  Please forward this! Thanks!

UPDATE:  Little news to report on the search. The only good news is that her last known location was a Safeway store on campus - a safe neighborhood - and the police “have no reason to suspect foul play” at this point. Other than that we continue to pray.  Please help us if you can to get this information to as many people as possible.

I lived and worked in Manila from ’97 – ’02. Filipinos are without question the the most kind, genuine, caring and generous people I have ever had the honor to know. And for Filipinos, immediate and extended “pamilya” (family) is everything. As in EVERYTHING.  A Filipino has “utang na loob” to family – especially parents. It means a “debt of gratitude”, but that doesn’t really describe it. It literally means an “obligation from within” – from the heart and soul. Michelle Malkin will pour her heart and soul into this until Marizela is safe. No hesitation, no question and no limit. It’s just what Filipinos do when family needs you.  Pray for her and this family, and especially that this precious young girl will be restored to the love and safety of her family.

Many, many thanks!!!
