In Memory of the People Especially the Children Killed in Conneticut School Shooting (963 hits)
NEWTOWN, Connecticut (Reuters) - Twelve girls and eight boys. One had celebrated her seventh birthday just four days before her death. They were Charlotte and Jack, Noah and Grace. Dressed in "cute kid stuff," all 20 died when a heavily armed 20-year-old gunman forced his way into their school, Sandy Hook Elementary, and shot them and six women in an act of violence that has shattered their once-tranquil suburban town.
"They were first-graders," said Connecticut Chief Medical Examiner Dr. H. Wayne Carver II, before releasing the names of all the victims of the school shootings on Saturday. Asked to describe the attack, Carver, who oversaw the autopsies of all the victims and conducted many himself, called it "the worst I have seen." "She was supposed to be an angel in the play," said Revered Robert Weiss. "Now she's an angel up in heaven."
We also mourn...but in God and Jesus we find there is joy in the morning!

I can't imagine how these parents feel especially during this time of year where things are usually joyful. My goodness! What is going on in the minds of people like that shooter? If we as parents send our kids to school to learn, why would we keep sending them when Columbine's keep happening?
There are so many sick puppies in the world and we have to always remember to love like never before as we'll as pray for our children's protection while they are out of our site.
We must continue to pray for them to heal.

Yes, I'm definitely praying for them. However, these parents will need therapy as well as meds for their nerves.
