Beverly,
I hope that the end of the trial and the verdict bring closure and peace to your daughter and his family...what a tragic story.

Thank you all so much for your prayers. We woke up on Friday physically and mentally drained but we are rejoicing because we finally have some closure. Quan's grandparents (who raised him) seem to have NEW LIFE.

You know, the morning of the verdict, his grandmother called to say she didn't want to go to court because she couldn't bear it if the jury had found the killer not guilty. She said she had lost her faith in God. We talked for a few moments and I finally convinced her she needed to be there. When I hung up the phone, I thought "This must be what it means to be a servant for the Lord."

Even though my daughter and I have suffered emotionally, it doesn't even begin to compare to what they have been feeling.

But now we can all move on.....



Peace & Blessings,

Bless your heart. I'm so sorry your family has gone through all of this. You have immense strength. I just read what happened and I am so sorry. I'm glad that the murderer will no longer be able to walk the streets and have his freedom. God Bless you.

Bev, I'm glad this horrible time of your life is moving on to better things. I'm equally glad that a just verdict was served.

How did I miss this? I'm sorry to learn late. I would have loved to pray for you all during the trial. How is your daughter?

We are breathing NEW LIFE this week. God's Word tells us that He will be our comfort in times of distress and He was true to His word.

I thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. My daughter, Janie, is holding up very well but I can tell she is still feels some sadness over all of this. It's times like this when the faith of a young person is REALLY TESTED and I'm hopeful that all I've tried to instill in her comes forth.


Peace & Blessings,

They say that something good comes from everything. I'm not sure this is true always, but in this case the blessing may very well be that you see her faith hold fast during a time when it would be much easier to blame someone; God, for instance. I'm sure you have taught her well, and provided a good steady example of how to walk in faith, Beverly. The good of all this will be you getting to witness her own faith in action.

I pray that healing comes swiftly to all concern.
