Greek Orthodox Priest weeps in America

I am weeping pray with me please... and pray for the missing children in Kosovo!

Dear Friends In Christ Our Lord,

May the great love and His peace always be with you!

Nothing is more precious to a parent then their children, and we know this well because when a child suffers in any illness a father and a mother is quick to help their children who need their help no matter what age. When the child is having any difficulty we find the parent always near, whether it be as indicated illness, or any problem. Parents are caring and loving for the children entrusted to them at every hour of the day. These children are so much loved they are even brought to the Orthodox Church to be baptized, and what a spiritual joy it is for the parent, and even for the child who seems to be spiritually joyful who have now been blessed by the grace of the Holy Spirit in Holy Baptism.

However when a parents child is missing, one can well imagine the tears, the heart ache, and the horror of the parent. We can almost hear these tears like Rachel wept for her children! So I tell you where at the many missing children who where kidnapped since the war began in 1999 in Yugoslavia? How can any of us be at ease in knowing these children are still missing? How can one not weep that these children have not been found?

One such Greek Orthodox priest is still weeping in Boise, Idaho wondering where are these children? Why have we not heard anything in the press about these precious children and not one word since June 10, 1999, not one word of hope that some of these children have been found.

We are talking about not only little children, but even teenagers! Then again we are also talking about adults!

We are talking about ages from three years old and up! Missing and kidnapped!

What kind of hope can we possibly give the parents and relatives about their missing children who where kidnapped since 1999 in Kosovo and Metohija?

We shall be with these gracious loving parents in prayer that we have not forgotten your beloved children, and that we continue to cry out in the world that new hearts will open and help return these children to their rightful parents. Read the following please and pray for the missing children in Kosovo and Metohija.

In the meantime I continue to weep for these children, and their parents, but at the same time continue onward in prostration before our Lord God, the most holy Theotokos, and all the saints that these children are preserved. I shall not stop weeping and continue onward in Christ-loving prayer until I hear that these children are safe and are returned back to their parents and relatives.

Pray for these children with me please!
