“The light here reflects the power of intent.
We’ve seen things change for the better for some individuals after group prayers. A strong will to see something happen was shaping destiny.
Each candle here is lit by a different individual. The intent is to eliminate darkness from people’s lives.”
Sounds of aircraft flying low swamped the speaker’s voice.
The last words heard were
“May this be the last attack…..”
Silence, a bleeding body and hundreds of folded hands raised up in prayer…

A hopeful story. Just what we need!
