From Miss Lottie:
Dear praying friends and family,
Thank you so much for the outpouring of prayers and encouraging emails over the last week.
Joel has been released for which I am so thankful. The situation is still ongoing. The four others have not yet been released. Please pray for continued wisdom during this situation.
Please continue not to post this on social media.
I missed the original announcement about what is specifically is going on. From this post I assume he and some others were arrested and detained for some reason. I’m so grateful to God that Joel has been released and I will pray for the others as well.
