Savannah Guthrie's *Today* family is sharing their love and support amid the ongoing investigation into her mother's disappearance.
During Thursday's episode of the morning show, Guthrie's co-anchors Craig Melvin and Sheinelle Jones shared the latest updates on the case of Nancy Guthrie's possible abduction and took the opportunity to urge viewers in a call for "collective action," requesting that anyone with any information call it into the tip line at 1-800-CALL-FBI.
"It was great seeing that kind of outpouring of love and support and prayer from people not just there in Tucson, but here in New York," Melvin said, highlighting the various candlelight vigils held in Nancy's honor. "And, you know, folks have been coming up over the last few days, just random folks off the streets."

The support from their *Today* community and fans is particularly poignant for Jones, who was recently the subject of that comfort after her husband, Uche Ojeh, died from an aggressive form of brain cancer called glioblastoma.
"It's almost hard to explain it but when there's collective prayer or thoughts, or whatever you do, it's almost like it carries you," the mother of three said. "And you feel supported and we feel like if you can't do it yourself, people will carry you."
That is how the *Today* show is lending their support to the Guthrie family, Jones shared. "We're wrapping our arms around their entire family and we're carrying them," she added.
Nancy Guthrie was last seen Saturday, when her children left her at her home in Tucson, Ariz. Both her three children and the Pima County Sheriff's Department have been searching for her since Sunday morning, when a church friend of Nancy's noticed she didn't attend service as usual and alerted the loved ones, who then searched themselves and contacted authorities.

In an emotional video shared to Guthrie's Instagram page on Wednesday, the journalist, along with her brother, Camron, and her sister, Annie, spoke directly to both their mother and to anyone responsible for her disappearance, pleading that they reach out to confirm that Nancy is still alive.
"Our mom is our heart and our home. She's 84 years old. Her health, her heart is fragile. She lives in constant pain. She is without any medicine. She needs it to survive. She needs it not to suffer," the *Today* anchor said in the clip. "We, too, have heard the reports about a ransom letter in the media. As a family, we are doing everything that we can. We are ready to talk. However, we live in a world where voices and images are easily manipulated. We need to know, without a doubt, that she is alive and that you have her."
She added, "We want to hear from you, and we are ready to listen. Please, reach out to us."

Guthrie shared a message to Nancy directly, saying: "Mommy, if you are hearing this, you are a strong woman. You are God's precious daughter, Nancy. We believe and know that, even in this valley, he is with you. Everyone is looking for you, mommy. Everywhere. We will not rest. Your children will not rest until we are together again. We speak to you every moment, and we pray without ceasing. And we rejoice in advance for the day that we hold you in our arms again."
Camron reminded his mother to "stay strong."
The Pima County Sheriff's Department will hold a press conference on Thursday, 1 p.m. ET, to share updates on the investigation into Nancy's disappearance. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Pima County Sheriff's Department at 520-351-4900.
