I bet most everyone by now has heard about this event.
Last sunday an armed guy with about over 1,000 rounds of ammunition in his back-pack and a gun arrived at New Life church’s parking lot and began shooting at people. Two teenage girls who are sisters were killed, and their dad is hospitalized.
The Gunman was taken down by a hired security guard. A lot of people have weird opinions about the reasons for this tragedy. Some claim this is the mark of the end times, and others just say that kid was a bad dude.
Anyway, the gunman was apparently homeschooled, and was involved in a previous shooting in another christian convention in another city.
This is important to me, especially because I live 15 minutes away from New Life Church, and that we have friends who go there regularly.
Put this in your prayers, OK? |

Spammers really are amazing creatures. You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month. And yet, after a hundred years, they can still surprise you.  |
