Choose Life

Dear Friends,

Please pray for at least a good end for Teresa Lewis who is to be executed by the Commonwealth of Virginia at 8:30 PM, Thursday, September 23, for the murder of her husband Julain Lewis and stepson C.J. Lewis.  Statements as to why clemency was requested are at < http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/virginia-governor-denies-clemency-woman-low-iq > and < http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/new-voices-john-grisham-asks-why-teresa-lewis-death-row >, detailed description of the crime and circumstances, if of interest, at <http://www.prodeathpenalty.com/Pending/10/sep10.htm >.  In any case, please pray for the repose of her soul, her convicted co-conspirators Matthew J. Shallenberger and Rodney L. Fuller, and the victims.

Will remember her in my prayers today! God have mercy on her and us all.
