THE FAMILY of the three children slain in the 'Kilancholly Massacre' in St. Mary late last month, have called for an international day of prayer and fasting on Thursday, February 10, to have God reveal the child-killer in hiding.
"We are doing it so that the Lord will reveal the right person who has done this act," says Sylvia Bailey, an aunt of the slain children, who is also a devout Apostolic Christian.
"We want the person to confess and we know that the Lord is able to reveal that information."
SPREAD TO NORTH AMERICA
Fasting has been described as one of the most powerful of all Christian disciplines where many use the occasion to bring their needs closer to God.
According to Ms. Bailey, they are now spreading the word among concerned people in North America who share in their pain.
The family is also asking the nation to pause at noon to say a prayer on Thursday "even if you are not fasting."
In the meantime, the family is busy planning the funeral service for the children, expected to take place on Sunday, February 13.
The commemoration will begin with a motorcade at 9:00 a.m. in Stewart Town in the parish and will end in Kilancholly where the funeral service will be held.
PLUNGED INTO SHOCK
The quiet, little-known district of Kilancholly, deep in the hills of southern St. Mary, was plunged into a state of shock and grief on January 28, after the three children were found brutally murdered at their home.
The three children are Dwane Davidson, 15, Sue Ann Gordon, 13 (both students of St. Mary High School), and Shadeece Williams, 4.
Their two-year-old sibling, Jamiel Williams was spared the wrath of the murderer and was discovered alive standing over the dead body of one of his
sisters.
Neighbours and other
residents in the district believe the boy and his two sisters were attacked in their sleep as they heard no screams coming from the house and were only made aware of the killings when their mother, Sonia Williams, raised an alarm.
