Hi everyone,
I have had a really tough week. On Thursday a man tried to lure my daughter Stephanie age 8 into his car. He asked her if she wanted to go to the candy store and to bring the dog (our chihuahua puppy jack) She told him No thanks and began running towards home and he shouted out his window that she did not know what she was missing! He then turned his car around and sped off. Stephanie did not even tell us what happened till last night and this morning while out with her grandma she spotted the car again in a neighbors driveway!
Turns out a sexual predator just moved in on Thursday the same day this happened. When the Citrus County Sheriff's Dept went to question them, the people who live there did not even mention to the sheriff that someone (the sex offender) had just moved in with them. We all found out from the Florida Dept of Law Enforcement aka FDLE website, after the fact. This raises red flags for both the sheriff and ourselves. Yet since Stephanie has an iffy description of the man all we can do is closely supervise all of our girls and stay close to home. This predator was convicted of lewd and lavicious molestation of a child 12-15, it is pretty scary.
My sister went to Jessica Lunsford Memorial Site in Homosassa today to pay her respects and while she was there received my phone call informing her of what had happened to Stephanie. It just so happened that there were reporters from WB, Channel 8, CNN, and 9 that are also interested in what happened with Stephanie, since our local citrus county sheriffs website did not have updated records on this predators new address. So the media may think that they have a story.
I want to pray for the safety of my children, my neighbors children and for this predator to seek the lord. I also continue to pray for Mark, Ruth and Archie Lunsford, on the terrible loss of Jessica. There are way too many of these predators out there, and something needs to be done. God Bless everyone!
Love,
Mary

Oh Lord, please put a hedge of protection around this family and all the little children that would happen to come into contact with this predator. Blind his eyes Lord so when he looks at the children he will not see them as something to use for his vices. WE come against his spirit of deception, lust, evil and deviancy in Jesus Name. Lord send someone his way that will bring him to you before he can even look at a child a wrong way. Restore him to the person you created him to be. Thank you Lord for the families that will grow closer to each other and let them call out to you for protection. Send out your biggest Angels Lord to make it very clear to the predators that these are the 'apple' of your eye and they are your own NOT to be touched. Send out your wrath upon ones that seek to do evil to them and I just plead your blood over all that are exposed to these circumstances. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Oh Mary that is just so scary. The same thing happened to my brother's daughter when she was 4 years old. My sister-in-law saw through the front window that a man had slowed down in his car and motioned Rochelle over to the car. Alarmed Rosanne ran out the door and the man sped off. Rochelle was playing right in her front yard. It can happen in the blink of an eye.
I also wanted to mention there are 2 bills that have recently been started as a result of what happened to Jessica to stop this. You can go here and sign the bills: http://www.petitiononline.com/BAMMO...n_response.html The Lunsford Sexual Offender bill and Jessica's Law. You can read them and sign both and post comments there. They are trying to change the laws to protect our children. It is terrible like Mark says that something like this has to happen to make them get tougher on these people.
Dear Heavenly Father, I am so upset about this every time I hear of one of these people preying on our precious children. I pray for the safety of Mary's children and all the children everywhere. I pray that something will come good out of this terrible tragedy of what happened to Jessica. I pray that these bills can be passed. If the only way to have our children be safe we have to do this, I pray that it will go through. I pray for those who are in office will do this and seriously consider what needs to take place. There are too many of these people making repeat offenses and being let back out into society. I pray that things will change in favor of the little children. They need a voice and someone to stand for them. I pray in Jesus Holy Name amen.

I ask you Father to protect the children in Washington state from the pedifiles that are all around also. Father, the tragedy that strikes this nation so often needs to be stopped. I ask a hedge of protection over every child in this nation from the East Coast to the West. I ask that you send your angels to earth today and have them protecting America's and all the worlds children from this evil spirit that seems to control so many men and some women.

Praise God your child is covered in the blood of the Lamb, otherwise she could have been a statistic. Keep us posted on what is happening with that molester... the news media definately need to be alerted, they can help put the pressure on for this person to be registered with his new address and to be monitored. All persons in the area need to know he is there!
Our prayers of protection are with you and your children. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Father, protect Mary's and other children from these predators. I just pray for overwhelming and abundant safety.
Father, may more be done to alert people of these predators moving into our neighborhoods. Let these predator not be able to just blend in but may they stick out so that all know what they have done and are capable of doing to our children. I pray for their salvation.
Lastly, Father love on Stephanie. Let her know that she did the right thing in running and telling. Bless her and keep her safe. In Your name, I pray. Amen
