Tragedy and Faith: Prayer for the Missing Girls

More than 80 people have been declared dead, and dozens are still considered missing, among them a girls’ summer camp that has still not been located. Some of the girls have been found, but they were found dead.

One of the most tragic cases was that of two sisters, both minors, who were found holding hands. And in their hands they held a Holy Rosary—they were praying together.

Because of this and more, the Office of Faith, the faith-based office at the White House, is calling for prayer. On its social media, it shared Psalm 34:18, which says that anyone in need of comfort, hope, and with a broken heart can find hope and comfort in God.

Our prayers also go out to the victims.
