"Let's just take a moment to put ourselves in the presence of God and ask God with his light and his grace and his mercy and his goodness just be with Savannah. With this entire situation, be with her mom. Bring hope, peace, some resolution to all of this, and let her know of the great love and support and prayers that surround her. In your name we ask, amen."
"Kotb asked if he had any words to share about the Guthrie case a moment before he led the prayer. Hicks said it was a heartbreaking ordeal and was hard to watch. I just want to extend my absolute support, and especially my prayers, he added. Not only my own prayers, but she has a community of people who's praying for her and the entire family."
"The 58-year-old Hicks became the 11th archbishop of NY earlier this month. His appearance on Today comes as the Nancy Guthrie case extends into its third week since she first went missing on February 1. The local sheriff on Monday said the entire Guthrie family was cleared in the case and denounced the cruel media for suggesting otherwise. And President Donald Trump said he is in favor of the death penalty for the suspected kidnappers if Nancy Guthrie is not safely returned home."
