This is a breaking story with details still emerging. I ask for your prayers for the surviving missionary and the families of both of these fine young men.

Prayers go out. I mean it's not like Mormon missionaries are hard to spot. So if this was a robbery they don't carry much money. You don't suppose it could be an anti Mormon hate crime

That poor young man. We will be praying for both of the missionaries and their families, as well as their faith community.

I shall pray for those involved in this incident. I am not Mormon but that doesn't matter. What does matter is someone died in preaching the word to those who need it. We may differ in theology but it is the blood of Jesus that saves us not denomination.

What a terrible tragedy! I will certainly pray for the recovery of the injured missionary, and for the repose of the soul of the murdered one. Condolences go out to all their families and friends.

Definitely not a hate crime. Black on white and against those evil religious extremists.

Jeez! I've always liked Mormon missionaries. Clean-cut, well-spoken - just a general pleasure to be around.

What kind of a jerk would do something like this?

this really does sound like he did it out of plain old malice.

As much as I disagree with their views, I have always liked the Mormans I have known. Clean cut and conservative.

I had a close friend who was approached by a gang of Blacks in Norfolk and beaten. He was out jogging and didn't even know any of them. Fortunately they weren't really trying to kill him, just roughed him up.

Straight out of Central Casting.
