Investigators believe Nancy, 84, was abducted in the early morning hours of Feb. 1, after failing to show up at a friend’s home in Tucson, Arizona, to watch a livestreamed church service.

A visibly emotional Savannah urged people to continue to keep her mother in their thoughts.

“Please keep praying without ceasing,” she said. “We still believe. We still believe in a miracle. We still believe that she can come home, hope against hope, as my sister says. We are blowing on the embers of hope.”

She added: “We also know that she may be lost. She may already be gone. She may have already gone home to the Lord that she loves.”

The Guthrie family also plans to donate $500,000 to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.

“We are hoping that the attention that has been given to our mom and our family will extend to all the families like ours who are in need and need prayers and need support,” Savannah noted.

“We know there are millions of families that have suffered with this kind of uncertainty.”

The FBI is also offering a $100,000 reward, and in a post on X, urged anyone with “firsthand knowledge” of Guthrie’s whereabouts should contact the FBI tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324).

Authorities have not identified a suspect in the case, despite the FBI releasing doorbell camera images and videos of an armed and masked man outside Nancy’s house on the morning she disappeared.

Savannah and her siblings Annie and Camron have posted several Instagram videos since their mother went missing.

In some of the videos, the family has made direct appeals to their mother’s possible captor.

“Someone out there knows something that can bring her home,” Savannah pleaded in the video. “Somebody knows, and we are begging you to please come forward now.”
