May the Creator protect our Congresswoman, and all those shot
We pray God shines light on one of the darkest days in Arizona history
All of us at the Navajo Lutheran Mission are praying for the recovery of our U.S. Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords who was shot in Tuscon.
God bless and protect U.S. Congresswoman Gabrielle “Gabby” Giffords and her family.
We pray for the families of the others who were killed including federal judge (U.S. District Judge John Roll) plus a 9-year-old girl and one of the congresswoman’s aides.
The young girl killed by the gunman, nine-year-old Christina Taylor Greene, was born on 9-11-2001.
Also – pray for all the other shooting victims.
President Barack Obama said:
“I ask all Americans to join me and Michelle in keeping Representative Giffords, the victims of this tragedy, and their families in our prayers.”
University of Arizona hospital spokesman Peter Rhee said he is “very optimistic” about the congresswoman’s recovery.
We pray for this.
