Emergency: Friend Missing, No Leads

Everyone,

A friend from my home church is missing. Her name is Leah, and I only found out yesterday, but she's been missing without a trace since last Friday. I called my Mom Wed. to talk, and she told me she was in Huntington (where I also did my undergrad.), and I assumed she was there for shopping (it has the closest mall). She usually talks at length, but Wed. she was quite and eager to hang up. I just assumed she was somewhere where she couldn't talk. Turns out, when I called my Dad yesterday, she was there staying with Leah's mom and sister so they wouldn't be alone. Now I know why she wanted to hang up, Leah and I are the same age and she didn't want to talk to me in front of Leah's mom.
Leah is gone without a trace, she left her car, keys, purse, everything but her cell phone. She was in the middle of packing to stay the night with a friend and her suitcase was still at the the apartment she and her sister share. There's no leads, no sign of her, nothing. I know her mom has to go back to work soon, but my Mom may stay longer.
Please pray for Leah and her family. The whole town is looking for her and it's in the media, but it's been nearly a week with no changes. I desperately want her to be okay.

Lord, please be with Leah's family as they await news on her whereabouts. Please be with those out looking for her, that they may find her. Above all, keep Leah safe. Keep her safe and let her be found safe...
Let Your will be done in this situation, Lord, and please let her be found soon.
May this be used to Your glory and highest honor.
In Jesus' name,
Amen!



Wow, please keep us updated. I couldn't imagine having a friend of mine (especially from my church) turn up missing like this...

You know, when you get to be a parent, you think about this kind of thing in those paranoid moments... not good. Praying.
