This is Emma. Mom sent a message for me to post:
Please pray now. We are with his family and have been all day. They just found Josh’s backpack.
The helicopter is transporting trained rescuers in. There is also a 30 mile wide thunder storm band and a second storm behind it. Please pray it disperses and the rescuers can get in. Josh’s family is so thankful that you, sweet bloggy friends, are praying.
oh my goodness! I'll pray and pray!

We are praying in MN for Josh and his family.
What else can we do but pray? We MUST trust in a God Who is in control and on the throne and at work for good even when we can't see how!

I saw the article in the Durango Herald. I am very sorry for your tremendous loss. May God grant his family and friends the strength for the grief ahead.
I will continue to pray…

I just heard the news. There aren't words. I am praying for his family. Dear Father, be near them tonight.
Praying for Josh's family in this, their time of need. I pray that they will find the strength to get thru this, with God's help. Such a tragic loss.
My heart is aching tonight for all of you, especially Josh's family. Praying that you find peace and comfort as you grieve with hope and look to the One who will bear you up and carry you through even this.
Thank you for the update Emma. We are definitely PRAYING for all involved! <>< So glad that all of you are with his family. They need exactly that kind of support system right now. May God make His angels charge over Josh and surround him in His hedge of protection until he is found…Amen.
