Urgent Prayer Request

A Korean student from one of the other International Schools in Lima (Roosevelt) was kidnapped this last Tuesday and is being held for ransom.  He is the son of a wealthy businesswoman here in Lima.  The kidnappers took him while he was on his way to school.

I just heard of this this morning!  I looked for an English version of the story but couldn't find one yet, but here is a Spanish version.

Please pray that the Korean Embassy here in Lima or anyone else would be able to help the family get this boy back.  Please pray that the Lord protects this boy and that He would be everpresent and reveal himself to this boy as his protector.  Please pray that the boy would be safe and the kidnappers would be caught.  Please pray for the family that they would see God's hand working in this situation.

Please also pray for the city and Peru, that the Lord would have his way in the hearts of all the people and that these sorts of things would not happen.

Please pray for the families and staff of the student at Roosevelt and that we as ICSL would be able to reach out and show God's love to them in this trying time.  Please also pray that our families, students, and staff would be safe, as well.

Thank you for joining us and coming before our father with us!
