Tom Duesterhaus is a consecrated layman in our community. On Friday, June 17, Tom disappeared. He was seen early the next morning in Virginia Beach by a vacationer who spotted him on the beach near the downtown hotels.

Together with the Duesterhaus family, we're asking for your prayers and any information that might lead us to Tom.
