Larry and Karen Wolters and their children, Abby and Micah, were sleeping when thieves broke into their house and stole two laptop computers. The Wolters, who minister in Burkina Faso, West Africa, had recently returned from the States after attending the funeral of Larry's father. Around 3 a.m., Karen heard their dogs barking at the other side of the house. When they quieted down, she went back to sleep.  
 
The next morning, Karen noticed that the laptops were missing. The front door was closed but not latched. No other valuables were taken. "Thankfully, most of the data on the laptops was backed up, but we did lose some documents and files," said Larry. With the heavy security they have (including eight-foot high walls, bars on the windows, watchdogs, and guards), the robbery was traumatic. The past few months have been stressful, so the Wolters feel overwhelmed by this latest crisis.
