In Tucson, Arizona, over 500 people gathered at a candlelight vigil to pray for Nancy Guthrie, the missing mother of Today show co-host Savannah Guthrie. The somber event unfolded at St. Philip’s in the Hills Episcopal Church, bringing together well-wishers who wanted to support the family during this distressing time. Savannah’s emotional plea for prayers had resonated deeply, inspiring local actress Sally Shamrell to help organize the service, expressing the community’s need to come together.
As worries mount over Nancy’s safety, with the Pima County Sheriff’s Department treating her disappearance as a crime, tensions are high for the Guthrie family. During the service, Pastor John Tittle led heartfelt prayers, urging for Nancy’s swift return. In a world burdened with uncertainty, the strength of community shines as residents rally together. It’s a stark reminder of the bonds that unite us, even during the darkest hours—and one can only hope that this story will have a happier ending than those we often hear about. Can we all agree that a little more kindness goes a long way?
