Today marks the 7th anniversary of the disappearance of St. John’s University student Joshua Guimond, and still there are no answers. On Saturday, Nov. 7, Josh’s family and supporters convened near the site of Josh’s disappearance for a “Justice for Josh” march to raise public awareness of their son’s plight, after which they delivered a petition for renewed efforts in the search to the Stearns County Sheriff’s Department. On Saturday evening, the family held a prayer service and candlelight vigil at Josh’s church in Maple Lake. Following is a video chronicle of the day’s events.
