Here in Milwaukee, a little girl, Alexis Patterson, disappeared while on her way to school six weeks ago. She was walked part-way to school by a family member, but was never seen on school property.
The local police initially tried to make a big deal about how her father has spent time in prison.
Not only does her family have to suffer the pain of not knowing what happened to her, but they've had to take their phone numbers off of informational flyers being distributed around the area. Alexis is African-American, & unfortunately, area racists have been calling family members to say that white people here in Milwaukee don't care about this precious little girl & we hope she never returns. One man even distributed that message on racist, hateful leaflets around town, adding to the family's pain.
I'm asking that you please pray for Alexis & her family, & maybe, all the missing children.
Thank you.
