Thanks to Daniel at Reformed Covenanter for bringing my attention to the above cause. (Daniel is a fellow Northern Ireland Blogger folks - please be sure to check out his extensive side-bar links for some of the best Reformed sites).
Hannah Overton is a Christian home-schooling mother of 5 who has been jailed after the accidental death of her son.
She has been found guilty of failing to discern the signs of salt intoxication from the signs of common flu!
Please check out the full story at Daniel’s blog. This family need our prayers.
You can also access the family home page here.
Christian parents beware, this Godly woman’s faith was used against her as the prosecution sought to make her out to be a religious sociopath.
Be sure to read Hannah’s letter to her family after the verdict, surely this is every parents nightmare.
Please pray for this family and also for Pastor John Otis who is unrelated to the Overton’s church but is campaigning to see justice prevail.
Mummymac.

I am Hannah’s aunt. Thank you so much for your prayers. Please pray that her appeal will be granted. Also, please go to the website http://www.freehannah.com and sign in as a guest. We are trying to discern how many people are aware of her case and care about her.
