Merry Christmas to all my Christian friends out there.

It’s a bittersweet Christmas for the family and friends of Paige Birgfeld. As we reported to you some months ago, Paige is a friend of ours from the direct selling industry. She left her home at 10:30 PM on June 28 and has not been seen, or heard from, since. She has been profiled on ABC News. Her case aired on America’s Most Wanted. Hundreds have searched, unsuccessfully, for her. She remains missing.

Her parents are distraught, left behind in Colorado. Paige’s three children were ripped from their grandparents by a magistrate and custody was taken away from Paige’s parents and granted to their father, Paige’s ex-husband. The children are living with him, in Pennsylvania, and have no contact with their grandparents, we cannot tell you why that is. You can speculate why that is and probably be correct.

Paige’s story is, sadly, not an unusual one today. Hundreds of people are missing around the country. You hear about the high-profile cases, like Stacy Peterson or Natalee Holloway, which is a good thing, but for every Stacy and every Natalee, there are hundreds more cases that you never hear about.

You can read about Paige at a new site called Help Find the Missing. Log on (follow the link to the left) and look at the list of Missing people to navigate to Paige’s page. One thread lists all of the relevant media stories about her and her case. While you’re there, look over the other missing people. Who knows, you may have the one missing piece of information that is needed to bring someone home.

It’s up to us. Merry Christmas to you all, and please, remember Paige and her family today as you are surrounded by your own loved ones.
