In a Facebook post, Christian Center Church Pastor Tim Burgan said Seibert was “murdered in her sleep” after her partner left for work.
“Our hearts are breaking! Every Sunday morning, as you entered the church cafe, you were greeted warmly by two love birds, Bryan (Murray) and Jennah!” Burgan wrote. “This morning their plans were cut short as someone broke into their home after Bryan had left for work. This person or persons murdered Jennah in her sleep and robbed them” “Pray for Bryan and the kids and Jennah’s family as they walk through this tragedy. Pray for those who are responsible to be brought to justice. Jennah is rejoicing with the Lord but those left behind are in need of the Lord’s tender touch!”
Lenity School Road was closed Friday night as police conducted the investigation. Police asked the public to avoid the area.
