Morning Rundown: Democrats toughen stance on DHS funding, Savannah Guthrie’s new appeal, and U.S. ski stars team up<\/a><\/span><\/use><\/svg><\/a>
In a video released Monday, "TODAY" co-anchor Savannah Guthrie said, "We are at an hour of desperation, and we need your help."
Hoda Kotb, filling in on the “TODAY” show while Savannah Guthrie remains in Arizona, sat down with the family’s pastor to discuss Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance.
Nancy Guthrie was supposed to go to a friend’s house on the morning she went missing to watch the church service being streamed online, a source told NBC News. When she didn’t arrive on Feb. 1, friends notified her family that she was not there.
Michael Rudzena, Pastor of Good Shepherd New York, said Guthrie would visit the church before the pandemic and that, during lockdown, the church began filming and posting services and sermons online.
She is a “strong woman, and she is fiercely loving,” Rudzena said. “Over the years, we’ve gotten to know what makes her tick.”
Rudzena said his heart goes out to Guthrie and her family and insisted “we don’t know what we don’t know.” He added that he hopes faith can be a guiding light for the family.
“Prayer opens up possibilities in our own hearts,” he said. “Leaving a door open for hope is a way to fight against that fatality.”
A source close to the family is revealing to NBC News how the Guthrie family first discovered their 84-year-old mother went missing over a week ago.
The source said that Guthrie and her friends regularly gathered to watch church services online together. When Guthrie did not arrive at her friend\u2019s house for church on the morning of Feb. 1, that friend called her daughter, Annie Guthrie, the source said.
An active law enforcement presence is expected to continue at Guthrie family homes today, a spokeswoman for the Pima County Sheriff\u2019s Department said yesterday.
The spokeswoman described the activity as part of an ongoing investigative process that includes an expansion of investigators\u2019 search and follow-up on new leads.
The spokeswoman declined to provide additional details about the investigation.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos\u00a0has said Guthrie does not have cognitive issues, characterizing her as \u201csharp as a tack.\u201d However, he said, she has limited mobility and needs to take medication daily or \u201cit could be fatal.\u201d Nanos said he does not know whether Guthrie\u2019s medication was still at her home.
\u201cShe is mobile. It\u2019s a challenge for her to get, as the family says, she couldn\u2019t walk 50 yards by herself,\u201d he said.
She has a pacemaker \u2014 a device typically implanted under the skin to regulate the heartbeat \u2014 which disconnected from its monitoring app on her phone early Feb. 1.
In an\u00a0emotional video\u00a0<\/a>posted to her Instagram page last week, Savannah Guthrie pleaded for her mother\u2019s return, noting her health is fragile.
\u201cShe lives in constant pain. She is without any medicine. She needs it to survive, and she needs it not to suffer,\u201d Savannah Guthrie said in the video, flanked by her sister, Annie Guthrie, and brother, Camron Guthrie.
An FBI billboard in California displays a missing person alert for Guthrie yesterday. Several additional states such as New Mexico and Texas have raised billboards for the missing 84-year-old who was last seen Jan. 31.

In an Instagram video yesterday, Savannah Guthrie called on the public to help her find her 84-year-old mother, who has been missing for more than a week.
\u201cLaw enforcement is working tirelessly around the clock, trying to bring her home, trying to find her. She was taken, and we don\u2019t know where, and we need your help,\u201d Savannah Guthrie said.
\u201cI\u2019m coming on just to ask you, not just for your prayers, but no matter where you are, even if you\u2019re far from Tucson, if you see anything, you hear anything, if there\u2019s anything at all that seems strange to you, that you report to law enforcement,\u201d she added. \u201cWe are at an hour of desperation, and we need your help.\u201d
Savannah posted a new urgent request hours before that final deadline in the alleged ransom note, pleading for anyone with information about her mother\u2019s disappearance to come forward. NBC News\u2019 Liz Kreutz has the latest on the investigation, what the Guthrie siblings are saying and what a former hostage negotiator thinks about the alleged ransom notes.
The FBI said that its agents, analyst and staff continue to work around the clock \u2014 as they have done for more than a week \u2014\u00a0\u201cto reunite Nancy Guthrie with her family.\u201d
Officials said in a statement last night that they are \u201cnot aware of any continued communication between the Guthrie family and suspected kidnappers, nor have we identified a suspect or person of interest in this case at this time.\u201d
The FBI continues to send additional personnel from field offices across the country to Tucson, it said.
\u201cWe are currently operating a 24-hour command post that includes crisis management experts, analytic support, and investigative teams. But we still need the public\u2019s help.
\u201cSomeone has that one piece of information that can help us bring Nancy home. We need that person to share what they know. Please call us at 1-800-CALL-FBI.\u201d
