News Search for Monica Renee Bowie continues
Posted by Andisheh Nouraee on Wed, Jul 18, 2007 at 2:00 PM
Friends and family of Monica Renee Bowie, believed kidnapped from her Lenox Park apartment on July 5, hope two upcoming public searches will uncover clues about the 34-year-old woman's mysterious disappearance.
On Thursday morning, volunteers will search and canvass the area of southwest Atlanta near where Bowie's attorney, Gerard Griggs, says police found a stolen car seen leaving Bowie's apartment complex the night of her disappearance. Griggs asks members of the public who wish to participate to meet at Hunter Hill First Baptist Church.
A search and canvassing of the area near Bowie's home is scheduled for Saturday morning. According to Griggs, volunteers should meet on the upper deck of the Lenox Road parking lot at Lenox Square mall at 7 a.m.
Griggs says there is no evidence to indicate Bowie was abducted by anyone she knows.
"At this point, we really don't know," he said. "All we know is she is a young, African-American woman snatched in the heart of Buckhead."

I went to elementary school with her for a brief time. Then we met back up in middle school (we were very close) and Monica and I graduated high school together from Perry T.A. High School in Pgh. Of all the years I've known her, she was nothing but sweet. Very smart. Funny. Loud! Just a great person to be around. I remember..."Dance Tickets" ...through the halls of Perry High. I loved her and who she was. Although she and I haven't kept in contact through the years, I still feel like I should comment on this situation. I loved her! It sounds like (from reading other comments) she hadn't changed from who she used to be. Life is crazy! And sometimes WE do things, say things, that we ourselves can't believe we've done or said. Did I mention LIFE IS CRAZY? It is! Don't judge her and her decisions. We've ALL done things that we are not proud of. We've ALL made bad decisions. Thank God for a forgiving and loving GOD! My prayer is this: God be with Monica. God wrap your loving arms of protection around her. Protect her God in every way...physically, mentally, spiritually. I pray that she comes out of this safe from all harm. I pray that she comes out of this with a wonderful testimony of your grace and mercy. No matter what the out come, God is good. I lift up her family. Extend grace to them Lord. Be everything that they need you to be for them and to them in this time of uncertainty. I love you Lord and I thank you for the wonderful blessing Monica has been to each of us. I pray that upon her safe return, she will continue to be a blessing to all of us. Be with all of us. In Jesus' name, Amen!
