Today, our community is hurting.
We are deeply saddened by the tragic events that unfolded in Midland. In moments like these, we are reminded of how precious life is and how important it is to come together in support of one another.
Our thoughts are with the victims, their families, friends, and everyone whose lives have been impacted by this heartbreaking act of violence. We pray for comfort for those who are grieving, healing for those who are injured, and strength for our entire community.
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” — Psalm 46:1
We also extend our heartfelt appreciation to the law enforcement officers, firefighters, EMS personnel, healthcare workers, and all first responders who answered the call with courage, professionalism, and compassion.
May we choose unity over division, kindness over hatred, and hope over fear as we move forward together.
