Hannah and her family need your prayers. This mother of five, a foster parent, and homeschooling mama has just been found guilty of murder. Her husband will be facing trial soon for the same murder.
You can read a news article HERE and check out a website created to help free Hannah HERE.
This story is so sad and scary. If a parent doesn't rush their child off to the Dr. or ER then they are accused of delaying treatment, even if they didn't think the symptoms were dangerous, or they used common sense steps before getting outside treatment. If a parent must take unusual steps for an unusual child they are abusive.
Hannah is not the first homeschool parent to have the facts twisted and face charges. She won't be the last.

Thank you so much for including Hannah's story. I am a heart broken friend who is continously praying for my friend. I know that she is innocent, first hand. The lies and manipulation that have taken place through out the last year are like a huge wall that it seems only God can destroy. Yet despite it all, she is bound and determined to serve her Lord and Savior. Please, pray for her five children who are still at home and for her husband. Also the grandparents are stepping up in a huge way, please keep them in your prayers. Please just pray she is released soon and that God's will would be done.
