Savannah Guthrie asks for prayer as her mother remains missing: 'We need you'

Savannah Guthrie, co-host of NBC’s “Today,” expressed heartfelt gratitude on Monday to her followers for their prayers concerning her mother, Nancy Guthrie, who authorities suspect may have been abducted from her Arizona home.

The last confirmed sighting of Nancy Guthrie was on Saturday night around 9:30 p.m. Her family had just dropped her off at her residence located near East Skyline Drive and North Campbell Avenue, north of Tucson, as reported by the Pima County Sheriff’s Department.

On Monday evening, Savannah Guthrie took to Instagram to share her faith and hope during this troubling time. “We believe in prayer. We believe in voices raised in unison, in love, in hope. We believe in goodness. We believe in humanity. Above all, we believe in Him,” she expressed in a post accompanied by an image reading, “Please pray.”

In a touching message, Guthrie extended her appreciation to those joining her family in prayer. “Thank you for lifting your prayers with ours for our beloved mom, our dearest Nancy, a woman of deep conviction, a good and faithful servant,” she wrote. “Raise your prayers with us and believe with us that she will be lifted by them in this very moment.”

“Thank you for lifting your prayers with ours for our beloved mom, our dearest Nancy, a woman of deep conviction, a good and faithful servant. Raise your prayers with us and believe with us that she will be lifted by them in this very moment,” the post continued.

Savannah Guthrie added, “We need you.”

The journalist also quoted a Bible as she appeared to attempt to remain optimistic about her mother’s disappearance.

“‘He will keep in perfect peace those whose hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.’ A verse of Isaiah for all time for all of us,” she wrote.

“Bring her home,” Savannah Guthrie concluded.
