Arkansas Mourns the Univ. of Illinois Shooting Victims' Families

ARRA News: Arkansans understands the heartache of losing family and friends in a school shooting. Our hearts go out to the families and friends of the students who were killed at Northern Illinois University yesterday. Join use in praying for the students, faculty and staff at Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, IL where the death toll is now at six dead and 18 injured. The campus held a prayer vigil last night. This was the fourth shooting in U.S. schools this week. Pray for healing for the wounded, for comfort for those who have lost loved ones and for speedy recovery for the entire community. May we find peace in the words of 2 Corinthians 1:3-5, which says, Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble... For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows.
