just one morning you go to get on the shoppa and find out it is double what it was yesterday!
No one can afford it, and the people have started rioting. Outside our center people lined up tires across the road and are burning them to cause a road block. Down the road the other direction there is allot of smoke from whatever they have put in place to block that side of the road. People are angry and throwing rocks and letting their voices be known.
It's quite dangerous at the moment, and no one here is allowed to leave the center today. Many of our workers have not shown up for work because they cannot catch a shoppa and there are too many road blocks. If it is this bad here out side the city, I am sure that in the city it is much worse. This morning I could hear many gun shots, I think it was the police firing shots to scare people.
PLEASE PRAY FOR PROTECTION, PEACE, AND AN END TO THIS RIOTING AND INJUSTICE!

we are praying for you in Abilene Texas. Valdemar and Pascoal are heartsick over the news and our staff is continuing to pray for the situation.

Goodness Anna, when it rains it pours! Again, I commend you for your bravery. I probably would've headed for home on the first flight back. I will definitely pray with my husband tonight for the safety of all at the center and an end to the price gouging.
