Our daughter, Katalina, has been missing since May 9, 2011. She was in a program in Richmond, Virginia. She broke their rules, and when it was discovered was dropped off at the Richmond Greyhound Station with $1.58 in her pocket and a voucher for a bus ticket to Charlottesville, VA–the station closest to home. She had no cell phone. It was 7:30 at night.

The program counselor left a message on our phone at about 7 to call her. We didn’t get home from work/meetings until after 8:30 PM. By the time we were able to send someone to the station for us (we live 3+ hours away), Katalina was gone. Surveillance tapes show she did board the bus for Charlottesville, but no one was there to meet her.

The Charlottesville Police Department is doing everything it can to find her.

Any help you can provide through prayer or the sharing of this page would be truly appreciated.

If you see her, please tell her that her family loves her, is worried and just wants to know she is all right. Please tell her to call home.

Thank you very much,
Sam and Lisa Mikitarian

Katalina has short brown hair and brown eyes. She’s 5’5″ tall and weighs 135 lbs. She wears glasses. She was last seen wearing jeans, a brown blouse and flats.

If anybody knows anything, please help. If not, please pray.

Father, bring this girl home safe and sound through Christ our Lord. Mother Mary and Guardian Angel, pray for her!
