This article, I believe, refers to a WONDERFUL press conference just aired (found by fluke just before going to bed, and here I still am) -- lasted about 45 minutes, Dayna and Heather were wonderfully self possessed in light of all they had been through.

This article does not do justice to all that they had to say -- hope you all can catch it later. LOL, it was said there would be a press conference Friday -- and it is indeed Fri. in Pakistan! Hope they get some sleep!!

Our specific prayers WERE answered: they DID find favor in their captives eyes, they WERE able to sing and pray and praise, they WERE (it seems) able to find peace and God's words, like Paul and Silas with bombings rocking the area like an earthquake...

Beyond all we asked and imagined, it was done. Praise God!

"The men who came and rescued us did a fabulous job - I don't think Hollywood could have done it better," said Mercer.

lol, she really said this -- and THANKS to those who got them out. Much isn't known, still, and some in danger still.

Heather and Dayna were VERY well spoken, so wonderfully poised (this also showed even on their heli trip rescue -- smiling, not showing the fatigue ... wow). May they get good rest and many hugs in days to come.

I'm glad they were able to describe how the charges were fabricated against them.
They were falsely accused but their time spent in captivity seemed to only charm and win over many of their captors.

It sure was great to hear them speak! Praying for the persecuted in Moslem countries. Thank you for the flag.
