Reunited

Ingrid Betancourt sees her children in person for the first time in over six years.

Ingrid Betancourt has described her liberation as a “miracle from the Virgin Mary” and has revealed how prayer kept her going during her six years and five months in captivity, admitting that the temptation of suicide was ever-present.

President Uribe gives credit where credit is due:

This operation that took place in the light of the Holy Spirit, and placed under the protection of our Lord and of the Virgin, was an operation of intelligence comparable to the great epic sagas in the history of humanity. … Without a drop of blood shed, without one bullet fired, fifteen hostages were liberated.

Do continue to keep up your prayers for Colombia, a land which is still plagued with many evils, though simultaneously bestowed with many graces.
