[562] prayers in [28] nations have been posted for Luz.

The guerilla leader responsible for the murder of Luz’s husband was released from prison in Colombia and is now seeking Luz. The man returned to the remote community where Luz now lives, telling her neighbors that he wanted to find her. Within a few days of his release, a SWAT vehicle of armed men also stopped by her farm in search of her. Luz was pregnant with twins when her husband went missing in 2007. The 30 pieces of his body were returned to the family in black, plastic trash bags. Luz and her three children have been moved to a safe location.
