Our Pew is with the people below.
Pray for all of them
\"Walter\" posted this: I was there.
Luckily, my little son and I were late on the balcony.
I pray for the band.
I pray that they will not be too shocked by this.
The injured (
And their parents)
Will heal soon and will not file a lawsuit against a band or church.
I pray for the congregation in the Central Highlands who will be able to worship on Sunday and will not be disturbed during the reconstruction.
When I went downstairs to help
I was a former volunteer, roadie)
I saw a woman fall down.
She lay down face down just (audience)
Right in the center of the stage.
She was unconscious and twitching.
I called 911, but I couldn\'t call.
This is 9: 18.
I checked when we realized that the horizontal lighting truss would not fall into the hole.
She lay on her back.
I don\'t know if she\'s okay.
Please update if anyone knows who she is or her condition.
From Starfield.
I want to encourage you by what could be a tragedy.
Shane talked to Shane\'s people about the fire, but God was with shadrak, micak, and abbednigo.
He will get through it with you.
He will also be with those injured.
