Rachel. Oh, gosh! I mean, it gives me chills to think about a "normal" ( as if there is such a thing!) girl being able to praise God in the face of a gun. Truly, she trusted in the Lord with all her might in that moment. oh, that is so awsome! Whew!

Mike this is a truly amazing and blessed site. I can see how much effort you put into it and what Rachel means to you. She was a wonderful person, put here for a special purpose and an example to us all. It is through her I have been able to contact you and Charlotte etc and we have all been brought together like all these people by her. What a wonderful result of such tragedy.

Rachel has become one of my heros in my life now. I learned a lot from her life espcially what it meant to be a christian life.She helps me show God's love to everyone. The phrase "Tomorrow is not a promise, but a chance" really makes me think that I should not hesitate to bring people to Jesus so that they will be saved because I don't know if I will be there tomorrow.

Rachel is my role-model in her death, many like me have a second chance at life. Not only to thank God for each day but to start and continue a chain reaction.

Some readings state that we are on this earth with a karma debt in order to reach soul perfection as intended by our Lord and that those that leave this earth very young are angels that have reached this soul perfection and are now sitting next to God. I'm sure Rachel with her beautiful smile is one of these angels. Gods bless her and you.

We just had an assembly at our school about Rachel, and it was by far the best assembly I've ever been to. I cried during the assembly, because this girl was truly amazing, and I can see why God wanted her closer to him. Rachel is such an inspiration, and I would of loved to have met her.

I had no idea how many people had been touched by Rachel. You must have been a truly beautiful person. I wish one day i'll be able to meet you. I am going to buy her books tomorrow. Your an insperation to the world Rachel. How can words express the raw emotions that i (and A LOT of others) feel for you and Columbine school, they wont forget what happened that day, and i wont either... GOD BLESS YOU RACHEL (your picture is definitley going on my wall) i think i owe it to you to remeber you and the people who (like you) have touched somebodys heart...you're a beautiful person...

We lose amazing people like Rachel, and we still turn on the TV to see killing and poverty. We ask ourselfs why this happens and no answers seem to be found...why do we continue breed the hate that takes the poeple we love away? When will we look at eachother for who we are inside, everybody had the right to be heard, and to be loved, and to feel safe. what kind of world are we living in to have beautiful people like Rachel being taken away from us. I wont forget the columbine story...something must be learnt from this...

I feel so like Rachel.In the way that we think, feel, oooh! It is almost creepy. There is this song by Joy Williams that always reminds me of her. It talks about how every moment slips by so quietly, how every moment "slips through our fingers like sands of time," but we don't realize it! We truly HAVE to live for God's Glory in everything we do. We HAVE to live every moment in a way we won't regret, because they aren't coming back. We only have one chance. I guess that song reminds me of her because her life was so short. But what an honour, to live and die for our Savior, who died for us in a greater way. I want to take the oppurtunity to live for Him in every moment. Thanks God for the chance!

Where do i start.Well even though i didn't know Rachel i kinda did in a way i mean we as christians we are brother's and sister's in Christ so we know each other.It sounds funny but in God's eyes its not when i heard about the whole thing i cried.But then when i heard about Rachel and how she looked into the shooters faces and did not deny Knowing God and that she was A Christian that made me think long and hard at my life i mean at the time i was saved and i still am but after that i acted and rededicated my life.God took Rachel to be home with himm and it changed so many lives.ANd it realy changed mine.Right Know im goin to go to a christian collage to become a pastor.And i cant wait to meet Rachel in Heaven

Today April 7th, 2003, My school and I went to An assembly hoping to see Miss America. But instead I had seen the father of a very pretty young lady that had died in the Columbine School Shooting. I was the kind of kid who makes other lives not easy to live with . I'm just being honest, but up until today I never knew that being a bully could make such an impact on others. I don't feel anything I mean I ususlly don't cry in front of people but when i heard Rachel's father talk and seen all the slides I couln't help it. I am going to write a story on Rachel and pass it around to friends, family, and people on the streets on how she had changed so many other lives and I can't belive that I felt something for someone that I had never heard today.

To Rachel's Family and Friends, i have read darrel and beth's book "rachel's tears" and i closed it crying but most of all i closed it different. spiritually that is. when i found out that rachel was so into God and that she didnt care what eople thought about her it go tme to thinking. i said "i wish i was like rachel." so now i try to portray Jesus as He really was and is to the best of my ability. i am currently doing a biography or Rachel also. i just thought that since you might like that rachel's death was not in vain because she showed me how my life should be. she is a role-model for me and i just wanted to tell the people that loved her my little story. i thank God for rachel even though i never met her i know she changed me and many others for the better. isnt that what she wanted? to be used in a great way for God? well, that is my prayer as well.

I am going to lead my youth group in ministry on Palm Sunday, 2003, and I hope to spread Rachel's philosophy of "Walk your Talk" to my friends here in Nashville. It took me 4 years to really look into the columbine tragedy and who the people were behind the names of the people martyred for the very religion that I once claimed to hold in my heart. Now I see exactly what kind of christian I want to be. I am trying, like Rachel, to go further than I have ever gone before. To Rachel, I dedicate this part of my life in which I go deeper into my walk with God. I know that you are in heaven watching the horrific events in Iraq, and part of me is happy. I know that you wouldn't want this, and neither do I. With Love to all, John

I just got back from the presentation given by Rachael Scott's father at UCSB. I was debating on whether or not I wanted to go, and I am so thankful I decided to. My tears did not stop until I got home and I was in the presence of my friends. Mr. Scott's speach was so incredibly inspirational that I feel like I have been missing out the past few years that I have drifted away from my faith. Now, I just want to call everyone I love to tell them how much they mean to me. I only wish everyone could experience what I have.

I found out about Rachel by reading Rachel's Tears. It touched me. I started my own journal to the lord. If there still looking for donations for the permanant memorial for those lost on that fateful day, I will be sure to donate. I can't believe that someone would do that. I wish she hadn't died. She would have made a great person.

I saw Rachel's dad at a youth retreat called Excell in Saratoga,ny.he gave a speech about his daughter.Before that speech i had never known anything about Rachel and that she was a christian and that she died for her belief in God. Also before this retreat, i had always believed in god but had questioned my faith.but after hearing about Rachels amazing testimony, my life has completly changed and i have found a true intimite relationship with God and i have committed my life to following and serving God. i have pledged to do whatever i could to take over where Rachel left off.i look at her as a role model in her faith. PS. just read and loved her book "Rachel's tear", and it has truly changed my life, and i encourage anyone who hasn;t read it to check it out. From, Dave (18)

I went and met rachels dad at pontotoc one night with PEARSON CHAPEL, CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE. I had heard about what happen to her and decided i needed to turn my life around. I went down and talked with rachels dad and he asked me if he could pray with me, i said sure. To know she had a dad like that is awesome but more wonderful is knowing that she was a christian. Alot of times i want to change my ways and i pray most of the time but im always afraid i wont have friends if i go to the Lord. But that shouldnt keep me away because i will always have a friend in Jesus. anyways im 16, and rachel's story really touched me. I just want to say thanks to her father, who prayed with me, and to her sister, you did a great job. God Bless.

Hi! I don't have enough time, and I'm sure you don't have to space for all of my story. So I'll just tell you that with Rachel's heartbreaking death and the help of her uncle John Phillips have saved my life. I was very close to suiside and when I heard her story, about her faith and that she had hard times too it brought my heart to God. I am now a strong dedicated christian, and I hope that somehow in my life I can effect someone the way Rachel has effected me. Thank you for your time, and may we all keep God in our lives!!

I've read Rachel's Tears and I think that she was a very good example of someone who truly loves God. It seems that her faith made her a very strong person, and the fact that she had premonitions of her death shows that God did use her to reach other people. I think Rachel did make a difference in her school, and the world.

First and foremost I would like to say rest in peace Rachel Joy Scott for you are in much of a better place! Second, I read Rachel's Tears and I have to say it deeply touched me and my life that I live. She brought me to God...I knew about him and believed in him...but I wasn't close as I am now. My life changed because of her and I live each day of my life with honor because I know I'm here for a reason...Rachel was and she touched millions and I learned from her and everybody who wrote in this guestbook also has. So although I felt like I can never make a difference and never had the answers...ask God...look to God...and follow in words and you will have the key to a door of hope, love, Heaven, God!

It was just recently when I was told by my best friend, who is a christian, about the Columbine Masacre. I was suddenly drawn to Rachel Joy's life, I was curious to see what God had done for her and it made me want to become a better person myself. I was surfing the web last night and I came across this site it mentioned Rachel and her friend who was having lunch with her and who was also injured the day she passed on and I could not hold back my tears, so I just wanted to express my deep sorrow to Rachel's friends and family and to the other victim's families and let them know my heart goes with them even if I am all the way over in Australia.

Emo, ON Canada - Friday, January 24, 2003 at 16:42:01 (EST)

Like many I remember sitting in horror as the tragic events unfolded at Colombine High School on April 20,1999. As the days unfolded and we learned of the children who were struck so by the hand of evil I was as many have been, moved by the light that still shown from Rachel Joy Scott. I always considered myself Christian yet I knew I had witnessed what it meant to be a Christian through Her brief short life. In 2001 I faced my own trial of faith due to health complications. I questioned God's reasons, I had my doubts, and yet I knew there was something God still was trying to tell me. Then I remembered one young beautiful spirit in a girl named Rachel and began to search more about her. I read her journals and realized she spoke the same words I had. While recovery of my health is questionable it still does not and will not prevent me from taking up Rachel's Challange and Living God's life as She taught us all. And as a father of a young girl who is like Rachel I know God has blessed me beyond my expectations, and I too gave my daughter the middle name of "Joy" I still find it amazing to this day how God works beyond the human comprehension and how a girl with the middle name of "Joy" would touch my heart as much as my own daughter has touched mine as well. As with all of us I know not when the Lord will call me to his heavenly home, but when I get there I hope and pray that I will be allowed to meet one Saint by the name of Rachel Joy Scott. May God forever hold her close to His Divine Heart. His true and faithful servant.

I can't find words to express the depth that Rachel's legacy has just turned my world inside out. She was sp powerful in Christ. I pray top be that strong one day. I have recently found out that my birthday is only one day after hers! of course mine is august 6,1989 but i was still in awe that it is possible. I look up to her alot. I am holding the torch that had fallen from her hand and it's gettin heavy so i pray that others will grab that torch so that we can make an impact on this world! WE CAN CHANGE IT!!

Rachel Scott was a beautiful child of God. I want to say thank you to Beth and Darrel for sharing their daughter's story with everyone. She has made a huge impact on me. She has helped me learn not to put any limits on God and that God is more than what I perceived Him to be. Thanks! =)

I've just started reading The Journals of Rachel Scott & so far I feel like I knew her. I wished I did cause she seemed like a true & dedicated friend. I sorry that she's gone. I wish the shoting never happened then everything would be back to normal. Cause my school changed because of this. We're not allowed to wear coats, or carry book bags & we have police officers all around the school, but I feel safe.

You have created a really touching web page. "I pledge allegiance to the lamb", made me cry, it was very touching. I recently read "Rachel's Tears" and it was of great inspiration to me. I have been going to church, but I don't 'walk my talk' like Rachel did. Her book has motivated me to serve God more, the way He should be served.

I read your testimony and I received extreme encouragement. As well as assurance from God pertaining to my salvation in Jesus. I love how God saved you physically and then spiritually. Our Lord Jesus is so incredibly awesome. God is evidently loving and leading people to Christ through Rachel and yourself. I recently read Rachel's Tears and I encourage all to read it and let a loved one borrow it. God's amazing love and beauty sprung forth in the midst of the Columbine tragedy.

Rachel has touched my life also, In 1999 a youth conference I attend I got to meet her father Darrell face to face. I can't even begin to explain what it felt like to look into the face of a man that had raised such an angel like Rachel. Rachel was certainly a gift from God. I wish that I could have met her. I will always thank God for Rachel and her Testimony.

I found out about Rachel and the shootings a few weeks ago, as here in Australia, we dont get CNN or anything like that, and i would have been about 13 when it happened, and it wouldnt have touched me as much as it has now that im 16. i became a christian a few months ago, and Rachels story has helped me through tough times when i was finding it hard to believe in God. Thankyou so much for this site and all the other ones to do with her. i wish i could have known her. she sounded like such an angel and i mean an angel sent here from heavan. Thankyou Rachel for everything you have done for everyone, and thankyou Beth, Darell, al family and friends of Rachel, and also Mike, the creater of this site, thankyou for allowing all who didnt have the privleage of meeting Rachel here on earth to feel like we know her. thankyou for sharing her.

I think Rachel is very pleased at what a great job you have done in creating a memorial site. Rachel was one of the best christians I ever knew and we all miss her but are happy because she is with Jesus the person she loved more than life itself. She would want us all to follow her footsteps and submit our lives for christ and follow him to the best of our ability. May god bless us all and help us do his will. I look forward to seeing Rachel again in heaven.

What a beautiful tribute to a beautiful girl~ Thank you for sharing your testimony~ I also was touched by the song "This is Your Time" Even though my daughter did not die in Columbine~ the song touched me deeply as it was written for her too~ I found the CD in her brothers room after she died and no one knows where it came from~ Well, I do~ This is another song that makes me think of Tiffany and Rachel~ Written by Mark Schultz Remember me In a Bible cracked and faded by the years Remember me In a sanctuary filled with silent prayer Chorus: And age to age And heart to heart Bound by grace and peace Child of wonder Child of God I've remembered you Remember me Remember me When the color of the sunset fills the sky Remember me When you pray and tears of joy fall from your eyes Chorus Remember me When the children leave their Sunday school with smiles Remember me When they’re old enough to teach Old enough to preach Old enough to leave Chorus Age to age and heart to heart Child of wonder child of God Remember me Age to age and heart to heart Child of wonder child of God There were several people who compared my daughter Tiffany to Rachel after Tiff died~ I did not understand at first b/c Tiff was not murdered (we were in a car accident) but now I do~ I read Rachel's Story and Tiff had many signs prior to her death ~ of course we did not see them until after~ she even told us she would not be here much longer (a month prior) This pain is the hardest pain anyone could have to bear~ I pray God continues to strengthen you and use you for His glory~ Love In Christ, Dawn In Loving Memory of Tiffany Marie Sisson 9/7/85-9/4/00 http://www.geocities.com/tiffanys_hope

I was never really one to watch the news, i was always busy when my parents watched it or just never really paid attention when i was in the room, but ill never forget hearing about the shootings. I was at school and nothing was really said about it except that there has been something tragic that had happened at Columbine, highschool. I Live in Ohio so we didnt really take it as hard as others. Yes it affected us but not all that much. It really affected me though i was raised in church and have grown up a christian but i never really took it seriously. I went to church but because my parents made me. I was never really a bad kid but i never tried to help anyone either or show them the right way to live or anything like that i was just there. in the year 2000 i finally picked my self up and said you have to do more than just be here. God put you here for more than that. I felt like i needed a big push though. I was at a christian bookstore and seen one of the book about Rachel and read the back and fell in love with it. I wanted it so badly but i didnt have any money.I waited about 5 months until my birthday and opened my gift from my sister, and she had bought the book for me. i was so excited. A lot of my friends arent christians so they didnt really understand why i was jumping up and down over a book. I didnt care. I read that book all the time now. come to find out our lives were so much alike. i just cried when i found out that we have so much in common. That really gave me the boost i needed to get off my lazy butt and do what i was put on earth to do. i just want to thank you so much for having these websites and books and things they really reach a lot of people and make them want to be what God wants them to be.I have never been this happy to be a christian and know i am serving the most awesome the only God. (sorry i didnt mean for it to be this long) THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS!!!! Sara
