Texas church survivors and supporters hold services one week after mass shooting

The congregation of the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs, Texas, held a service today away from its sanctuary, a week after it was the scene of one of the worst mass shootings in modern U.S. history.
The few dozen congregants relocated a half-mile away for their Sunday services and saw their ranks swell by hundreds, as people from near and far flocked under a propped-up tent at a baseball field to start healing.
Together, they mourned the loss of 26 people -- mostly children and an infant -- killed by Devin Patrick Kelley, who wore tactical gear and a gold skull-faced mask as he unloaded on helpless congregants with a hi-powered rifle.
He also injured 20 people before attempting to make a getaway. He died after being chased down by two Good Samaritans, when, local authorities said, he crashed his truck and turned the gun on himself.
The church itself was turned into a memorial to those who lost their lives, painted all in white, with red roses on each chair.
The church's pastor Frank Pomeroy, who lost his 12-year-old daughter Annabelle in the mass shooting, and afterward told ABC News she was "one very beautiful, special child," delivered a moving sermon advocating to plot forward.
"We have the freedom to choose, and rather than choose darkness like the young man did that day we choose the light," he said, according to the ABC News affiliate KSAT.
The clergyman, who vowed this week to start arming himself when he preaches in the future, was unwavering in his faith, and noted that he like, the surviving congregants, should "not allow the lives that were lost or the families hurt lie in vain."

He then encouraged people to be even more dedicated to church attendance.
"We can't let that act be an excuse to miss church," he said. "We can't let that act be an excuse for us to act heinous."
The crowd seated in the couple hundred chairs rose in applause when he was done.
The pastor was joined by Texas Sen. John Cornyn, a Republican, who took some time to condemn the killer.
"He was a guy who seemed to never get his act together," said Cornyn, before slammed the breakdown in the background check system where Kelley's criminal assault of his wife and child years ago was never formally inputted into the proper database by the Air Force.

"The one thing we know for sure is this individual should not have been able to legally purchase a firearm," Cornyn added.
The politician also said that he is working to bring bipartisan legislation this week to prevent the "fix this broken background check system."
He also said that the Air Force miss on Kelley isn't isolated.
"It's not just the Air Force," he said. "It's across the Department of Defense. Some of it has to do with the fact that under the uniform code of military justice, some of the offenses don't bear the same name as it would appear in civilian courts."

[Reality_And_Drama_TV_Shows] Texas Church Is Transformed Into Poignant Memorial For Mass Shooting Victims

 

  This has be the saddest group of funerals ever,. With this being a small town everyone knows everyone so all those that died the whole town knew. I thought they were going to demolish the church and make it a memorial place. I just wonder though if it be better to keep the church  and just do what they did? Make repairs and replace. I think I read somewhere that someone was donating the funds to rebuild ? I just don't know if I could ever step foot into a place where all my friends family have been killed or injured.

Texas Church Is Transformed Into Poignant Memorial For Mass Shooting Victims

Melissa Jeltsen,HuffPost 14 hours ago
SUTHERLAND SPRINGS, Texas ― One week after it became the site of the deadliest mass shooting in modern Texas history, the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs reopened to the public on Sunday.
Gone were the pews. 
Instead, 26 handcrafted chairs marked locations where worshippers were fatally shot. Each chair had a name inscribed on the backrest, and a red rose. An audio recording of scripture readings by church staff played on a loudspeaker. 
The scene of an unspeakable crime had been transformed into a moving tribute to those who lost their lives. 
"Everyone who walks in there will know that the people who died lived for their Lord and Savior," the Rev. Frank Pomeroy, the First Baptist pastor, said at a Sunday service earlier in the day held under a tent nearby.

Footage from inside the First Baptist Church, which has been transformed into a memorial for those murdered last Sunday.
                            
On Nov. 5, Devin Patrick Kelley attacked the church with a semiautomatic rifle. He killed 26, and wounded 20 others. As he exited the church, he was shot by an armed civilian. He fled in his SUV and was later found dead with a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
As soon as law enforcement finished processing evidence, a construction team began renovating the church building, according to a media handout. Chairs, pews, and carpet were removed from the small sanctuary. The walls and floors were painted, and the windows were replaced. 
Before the media was allowed to tour the church on Sunday, a number of family members of victims were escorted inside to spend a few minutes in silence. One woman had to be held up by a chaplain as she exited the worship hall in tears. 
The Rev. Mark Collins, the associate pastor, said in a press release that he hoped it would be healing for the community to be able to enter the church once more. 
"This is our church, but it is not just us that are suffering," Collins said. "This tragedy has rocked our nation, and has had an impact on all Americans and our country as a whole." 
The church will be open Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. 
It is unclear whether the memorial will be permanent, or whether the building will be razed.
