The following came from the Victory Baptist Press newsletter from Pastor Tim Fellure:
We just got a call from Brother Humberto Gomez telling us that his twenty-six year old nephew, Nehemiah has been kidnapped in Mexico. The kidnappers are demanding a large sum of money, or, they say Nehemiah will be killed today (Thursday).
For more information you may call Humberto Gomez at
956-867-1281.UPDATE: Last night the kidnappers let Nehemiah call his dad, Jose Gomez and tell him he had until today (Friday) to pay the ransom money. From that we know that Nehemiah is still alive. Please pray much through out the day, it would also be deeply appreciated if you would forward this email to your friends and encourage them pray.
“Just before 10:30 PM (Saturday, October 31) The kidnappers allowed
Nehemiah to call his dad, Jose Gomez. News is that a blind fold and
ropes he was bound with have been removed. He is in a motel, but he
doesn’t know himself where it is. One man is watching him through the
night, and he is supposed to be released tomorrow morning with
enough money to ride a bus home.”
Although he is beaten up, Nehemiah is home safe. Praise God!
