We just got word about 8:15 this morning that my building of the school has been broken into again. We (Dad, Mom, and me) went down there, and the window was smashed with a mop they found around back. They got inside and messed everything up. They broke in the window while getting shards of glass everywhere, dumped a bag of candy on the floor, stole a little bit of money, ransacked a few of the student's offices (not mine, thank goodness), tore up the teacher's office, cut the power off damaging the electrical box on the outside of the building, and stole the big, white van!!! The keys to the van were in my teacher's drawer, so that's how they stole it.They didn't steal as much money like they did last time. They could have maybe stolen about $25, but not more than that. They didn't really vandalize anything, but they did screw up everything. The police were there for a while and told the other police officers to be on the lookout for a large, white van. And, since the power was out and investigations and everything, we called off school for my class. My classmates were really upset that they had to go home early! LOL
Thankfully, the van was spotted in a cornfield in a small town in the middle of nowhere about thirty minutes from the school. They did smoke, there were ashes in the van. They obviously searched through the papers in the van because the papers were all over the floor. They tore the magnet off the side of the van and busted the side of the left, side mirror of the van.Otherwise, they didn't do much harm to the van, thank goodness.
Last year they stole about $800 to $900 dollars that we had just earned from a fundraiser. We think they're the same people that stole the money last year, but we're not sure. I have said ''they'', but we don't know if it's a ''she'', ''he'', or ''they''.
So, the prayer request is, is that we catch the people or person that has been doing this, and that they or the person gets saved. Thank you!
Smiles,

I got your email too - I sure will be praying - do you think it was the same person both times? I do pray they will get caught.
