A Wednesday night vigil at Morning Star Baptist Church marked three months since 12-year-old Amber Harris was reported missing.

The family asked that the vigil be held at the church on 20th and Burdette because it's just one block away from where their daughter's book bag was found.

The bag remains the most significant clue for Omaha detectives looking for the girl.

Melissa Harris believes it's the biggest hope left in learning exactly what happened to her daughter.

"We're exhausted, but the faith is still there," she said.

For many people, the last memory of Amber Harris is the video of her getting off the school bus the day she disappeared.

"That's the one things we want is our Amber Harris," said her father Michael Harris. "We appreciate family and friends and everybody who believed in us. Thank you for opening up your doors to continue to find our daughter. Thank you."

The Klaas Kids Foundation will conduct a community search this weekend. Details are to be announced Thursday as to where that will happen.

Volunteers must be at least 18 years old, in good health and have a photo ID.
