ROUGH CUT (NO REPORTER NARRATION) Ed and Paula Kassig, the parents Peter Kassig, who later changed his name to Abdul-Rahman, called on others to pray for their son, and to focus on the good in the world.

But rather than letting the darkness overwhelm him, he has chosen to believe in the good in himself and in others. Peter's life is evidence that he has been right all along, one person makes a difference," his mother said. His father, referring to his son as Abdul-Rahman throughout, calls for prayers at sundown. "Please pray for Abdul-Rahman, or 'Pete' if that's how you know him, at sunset this evening.
