“As a mother, my heart breaks for the parents, grandparents, and families who are living through an unimaginable nightmare today. No parent should ever have to fear for their child’s safety when they send them off to school. My prayers are with the children and families who are hurting, the teachers and staff who acted with courage, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the doctors and nurses now working tirelessly to save lives.
In times like these, we lean not on our own understanding, but on God’s comfort and strength. While words cannot heal the pain, I trust that His presence is near to the brokenhearted.
We must continue to do everything possible to protect our children, support our schools, and work together as a community rooted in faith, compassion, and courage.”
