Sara and Paul,

We heard this afternoon that last night someone broke into Todd and Michelle Staheli's house in Rio de Janerio. Todd had a knife and was trying to protect Michelle and was killed. Michelle is unconscious and has head and facial wounds. Apparently the children were not harmed. Todd's Mom and Dad went to Rio today. I expect I will have more news by the time I write the next Thoughtlet. I encourage you both to pray for the kids.

Love,

Dad
