When it gets too close to home

My family has been wiped out with the flu this past weekend, so we were out of touch with the news… and I mean totally out of touch. I’m back at work and have just learned about the mass killing that was done in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. While I didn’t know any of the victims, I know people at church who knew them. Also, we went to church in Capitol Hill for a while when we first moved back to Seattle, so we know a number of people in that neighborhood.

I’d like to ask for folks to pray that in the midst of all this horrific tragedy, that God’s glory would be known. I know some folks from church are trying to reach out to those who were part of the rave that was the ‘opening scene’ for this tragedy. But any way possible, may God be glorified.

  1. I wondered if you had any connections to the victims, Matt–whether through the university or church, etc. The story is searingly tragic on every level.
