From the state that brought you Columbine:
I'm sure you've heard, but we had two separate shootings at faith centers in Colorado today. The YWAM shooting affected the Petries a little. The co-director is in our Bible study and all of the kids in the dormitories were displaced as a result of the crime scene. Tom, the leader of our group and a coworker at the Mission, and I spent the day getting supplies from the Mission warehouse and delivering them to a mountain retreat over some treacherous, wintry roads.
Those kids are hurting, for sure.
The second shooting was at Ted Haggard's former mega church. The shooter was killed by an armed church security guard. Police are hinting the shooter may be the same individual in both cases.

I just saw it on the news. Awful.
Wow, I hadn't heard. I'll have to go look for more info.
The facilities are about 60 miles apart, but there was a partnership between the two. I am not sure how extensive the relationship was, but the church "beefed" up it's security as a result of the news at YWAM. Hindsight seems to indicate that that was a good idea.
Armed church security guards-man, we live in a jacked up world...
HOW SAD! I'll have to look it up too. Kyle, are the RIGHT man in the right places for these times.....
Come Lord Jesus......
