ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- Dozens attended a Wisconsin vigil for a missing Minnesota woman.

Friends and other community members gathered at Bethany Baptist Church just outside Wausau, Wis., on Friday to support 30-year-old Kira Trevino and her family.

Her husband, Jeffery Dale Trevino, is charged with two counts of second-degree murder after investigators found "copious" amounts of blood in the couple's home.

KARE-TV reported Bethany Baptist provided the space since the family church New Day Christian Church was unable to host everyone. Also, Kira Trevino is from the Wausau area.

Kira Trevino's sister Keri Anne Steger thanked everyone for coming and asked people to pray that her sister is found.

St. Paul police says they have received good leads from a tip line set up to find Trevino but no breakthroughs.
