Nathan search update: Several Christ Alone church members are following credible leads of an individual matching Nathan’s description walking south of Walnut, MS, on Saturday. We are also canvassing across the border into Tennessee where a couple of home owners reported home alarms going off recently in an area surrounding a hunting club that has video cameras.
Hardeman county sheriff in TN is mounting a special camera on a helicopter to conduct a search of the area. Drones and other volunteers will be arriving today to help search on the TN side. Please keep praying for Nathan’s safe return home. And thank you to all the wonderful people of Walnut, MS and Hardeman County Tennessee who have helped and continue to help us find Nathan.
