My heart is broken hearing the tragedy right in my own backyard. 

Everyday I’m terrified to turn on the news and discover another tragedy that has become a common occurrence in these uncertain times. 

As the world was turning its back on God and the church was sound asleep, evil snuck in like a thief in the night robbing us of hope, morality and safety. 

As followers of Christ we must stop being silent and hidden and instead shine a light of hope into this world. 

Start by not only pray at times of tragedy but diligently pray every day for this fallen world. 

Please also pray for our officers who get criticized, ridiculed and disrespected but face evil in spite of it all. 

God bless.
