My husband is in Nashville, TN this week doing flood relief work with Samaritan's Purse (if you are unemployed, you may as well help someone else while you have the time huh?) Anyway, when I spoke with him tonight, he asked for prayer for 3 Samaritan's Purse employees/missionaries who were abducted yesterday in Sudan. Here is a link
