Today Show Host Savannah Guthrie Will Pay for Return of Missing 84 Year Old Christian Mother Nancy


In an emotional update to the ongoing investigation into the disappearance of her mother, Today show host Savannah Guthrie has declared she "will pay" for the safe return of Nancy Guthrie, 84, who has been missing since January 31.

Nancy was last seen around 9:45 PM at her Tucson, Arizona home after family members dropped her off following dinner. Authorities believe she was taken against her will in the middle of the night. The Pima County Sheriff's Department and FBI are investigating.

Multiple alleged ransom notes have been sent to media outlets, including one demanding millions in bitcoin. Police are working to determine their authenticity. DNA samples collected at the scene are awaiting lab results.

Community Gathers for Prayer as FBI Investigates Kidnapping of Savannah Guthrie Mother

Savannah Guthrie's offer to pay ransom sent 'clear, unconditional' signal  to abductor: former FBI agent

Hundreds of people from the Tucson community gathered at a church for a

candlelight prayer service for Nancy's safe return. Savannah has leaned publicly on her Christian faith throughout the ordeal: "We pray without ceasing." She told President Trump her family is devastated and needs prayers. It was her mother, she shared, who first taught her the power of prayer.


The Crusader's Opinion

An 84 year old Christian woman is missing. Her daughter, one of the most recognizable faces in American media, is begging for her return and quoting Scripture. We pray without ceasing. In her darkest hour, Savannah Guthrie is not leaning on her fame or her network. She is leaning on the faith her mother gave her. That is the testimony of a mother's legacy. Whatever happens, Nancy Guthrie raised a daughter who runs to God when the world falls apart. Pray for this family. Pray that Nancy comes home.


Take Action
