RIP Johnny Clark and Lisa Straub

If you have watched the news anytime within the last few days you will have seen these beautiful faces I posted above. Johnny Clarke was staying with his girlfriend Lisa Straub in her parents' home while they were away on an anniversary trip. At some point during the night on Jan 31st, someone broke into the home, ransacked the place, and then VIOLENTLY killed these young people. They died from asphyxiation from plastic bags being placed over their heads. They were also bound by their feet and wrists with duct tape. Lisa had been hit with something in the head and was also bleeding heavily. Lisa and Johnny were discovered by Johnny's father. There are alot of details and I could literally fill a whole page telling you how many details I have read about, but the most important thing is that all of us pray for the people who have been affected by this tragedy.

Johnny left behind two younger brothers who are not dealing well with the death and there are also NO leads in the case. Please pray that there will be justice in this case and that the people who have been affected know Christ and are saved. My friend and I were discussing this case and how we wondered if these young people were saved. If they were not, we wondered how many saved people came in contact with them and never shared the gospel. Please, everyone reading, remember that we are not promised tommorrow. Share the love of Jesus with a co-worker, a neighbor, a family member, or a friend.

I pray that these families can find peace during this horrific tragedy. If you would like more information on the case there are many pages on www.facebook.com explaining details and asking for donations.
