Missionary teacher killed on Yap

COLONIA, Micronesia (UPI) -- A college student working as a Seventh-day Adventist volunteer in Micronesia was found dead, victim of an apparent attack during a morning run, the church said.

Kirsten Elizabeth Wolcott disappeared Wednesday, Adventist News Network reported. Her body was found in a wooded area near the school on the island of Yap, where she taught.

She had been stabbed.

Church officials said they have been advised of an arrest.

Wolcott, 20, had taken a year's leave from Southern Adventist University in Collegedale, Tenn., to teach on Yap. She was an education major and was known for her love of running and of music, which included playing the harp and singing in Southern's women's chorus.

I would like to ask my dear friend, do you have a picture of anyone in your pocket or your home.

Do they weeps human tears or bleed human blood. For God is doing amazing things these days , he has shown his mark of approval on his church his he had instituted 2000 years ago.

and if you call it a demon weeping inside, then surely God wouldnt have healed so many through these tears. Brother dont be disoriented.

this church does not teach you to worship idols but reminds you about the divine , hust as you are reminded by the picture of a loved one in your closet or pocket.

Dont interprete it wrong, nor run behind those trying to interpret it for their own benefit or the benefit of their group.

this church built on the rock has survived the storms for 2000 years and will still continue till the end. please focus on bringing soul to God thru Christ, rather than spliting it. For we should be peace makers as Christ wants us to be.

When will they learn? You cannot force a religion on cultures that worship "GODS, and SPIRITS, and IDOLS"! Their religion is as important to them as ours is to us!
