Pray for Falcon Heene, Missing Colorado Boy

posted by nsymmonds

It started as a CNN breaking news alert, “A 6-year-old climbed into a balloon-like experimental aircraft built by his parents and floated into the Colorado sky.” Falcon Heene is the name of the little boy who took flight earlier today in a ballooncraft built by his parents as part of a scientific experiment. At its peak the balloon reached 10,000 feet and then it started it’s descent. At the time it was unclear whether the boy was still in the ballooncraft and as of an hour ago it has landed but the boy is missing. This prayer is for Falcon Heene and his family and friends.

Heavenly Father,

As the search begins for 6-year-old Falcon Heene I pray for his safe return to his parents. It is my prayer that wherever he is right now you would comfort him and allow him to fear not for you are near. Send angels to protect Falcon and keep him safe until he is found. Speak to him and let him know that help is on the way. And as the “help” is on their way, give them knowledge, wisdom, and discernment to find him quickly. Comfort Falcon’s family and friends in the midst of this time of uncertainty. Help them to be optimistic, patient, and stay encouraged to see what the end is going to be. May every person that will, within their radius, do all they can to not only comfort this family in their time of need, but respond to this call to action to help search for this missing child. May all hearts pray and may all minds send positive thoughts and love to this family. In Jesus’ Name, Amen

The little Falcon didn’t fly away, he hid in a box in the families attic over the garage! What a great ending, they’ll be talking about his little trick for the rest of their lives.

This family is pathetic. That hoax cost taxpayers a ton of money. those little kids tried to pull off the oh so innocnet look on TV–but watch their YouTube video. Foul mouthed little brats. The dad has a video on his alien theories. He is a nutjob. The whole family is crazy.
the only prayer I have is that they get charged for their hoax and disappear from public view.

We were all scammed. My church was praying, too.. Now we need to pray that these boys get taken away from those terrible people and that they get locked up for child abuse and for what they put our Nation through today.

My brother and I built something similar to this ‘vessel’ when I was 14 years old about 40 years ago and there were many UFO sightings in our area. So……judging by the cubic yards of ‘capacity’ within this ‘flying saucer’, then, IF Helium Gas had been used…..they could only have been able to ‘LIFT’ a 9 – 11 Lb object, MAXIMUM…….NOT a Boy of that size. Let’s also check the ‘COMPARTMENT’ below the saucer that the Boy supposedly hid in. It is NOT BIG enough nor is it adequately reinforced to ‘hold’ or ‘contain’ a youth (and the father knew that from day one!!!). All is BS. Prosecution must now do its job. Karl in Wisconsin
