brideofjc Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) This probably belongs in the Prayer forum, but nevertheless, please pray for the family and church family of the pastor that was just shot to death while he was preaching at the Baptist church in Maryville, Illinois just yesterday. Most of the congregants thought it was a skit, because the pastor deflected one of the bullets with his Bible and they saw paper confetti blow up into the air, until the pastor took a bullet and then was running down the side aisle before he fell down. They then realized he was wounded. It was then that the congregation tackled the man when he then pulled a knife out. I just heard on the radio that his name was Fred Winters. So please pray for his family and congregation. Edited March 9, 2009 by brideofjc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
