Prayer Vigils

St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, 305 W. Seventh St., will remain open until 8 p.m. tonight. All are welcome to enter through the front doors for prayer in the Nave. In response to the shooting today in Chattanooga, a prayer vigil is planned for 7:30 p.m. tonight at Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church at 6314 East Brainerd Road. The Bessie Smith Cultural Center will be hosting a prayer vigil on the lawn of the center on Friday at 5:30 p.m. to pray for the City of Chattanooga. “In light of the tragic shooting that took place in our city, let’s unite as a community in an act of solidarity and compassion and pray for our community,” said Dionne Jennings, President of the Bessie Smith Cultural Center. Anyone wanting to participate is welcome to join.

Mourners gathered across Chattanooga Thursday night to honor the Marines killed in a bloody rampage in two attacks at military installations in the city.

Hands and hearts were raised, up away from low places, far away from the violence that shattered the Scenic City earlier in the day. They met at Shepherd Road, at Abba’s House, at Redemption Point, at Saints Peter and Paul Catholic Church, and at Wesley Memorial United Methodist Church.
