To be honest, it didn't seem like too much like a prayer vigil (only about 10 minutes of prayer).
This was more of a show of support for the family and neighbors who knew Officer Worthem and his family. That's OK, because this was less than 24 hours after this happened, and healing and a sense of community are definite needs at this time.
Many people lingered after the prayer, and it seemed like neighbors were re-connecting with each other.
There will be a greater focus on the prayer aspect on Friday 28 at Ruggles school. Click the link for info. We encourage you to come out to that and to know your neighbors and listen to how the Lord wants to lead you in our community.
