The couple were giddy and absolutely delighted when they discovered what had been stolen. They are hoping that when the thief discovers what he had taken were actually Christian gospel tracts, that he would read one of them.
And they hope when he got to the part that asks if he had ever stolen anything, that he would have "a lightbulb moment" and be convicted.
Following that, they pray that he would read on to find out how he can escape the wrath of God for doing such a dastardly deed (among the millions of his others) and be saved.
Though there were other material items the culprit could have taken (like a huge open tray of 1 and 2 dollar coins - real money - that the Latours use for parking downtown on their "fishing excursions") n
othing else was stolen.
The Ottawa Police officer who took the report could not contain his laughter when he was told what the thief took. He said "The guy must have thought he hit the mother lode, and took off as fast as he could without bothering to search for anything else that might have been of value to him."
Laughter subsided, the victims are now praying for the thief that he would come to repentance and faith in Christ, and then unselfishly hand out the remaining million dollar bills to 84 of his closest friends.
They noted, saying: "God has a wonderful sense of humor!"
