A shooting at a Connecticut elementary school Friday left the gunman dead and at least one teacher wounded and sent frightened pupils into the parking lot. The shooter was killed and apparently had two guns, a person with knowledge of the shooting said. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation was still under way. It wasn't clear how many people were injured at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown.

Dear God,
We come to You with broken hearts,
surrendering the catastrophe that has occurred today in Connecticut.
We cannot comprehend the darkness that led to this,
or the suffering of those who have loved and lost.
They are both too big.
But in You, dear God, there are Answers we cannot surmise and Light we cannot summon by ourselves.
We present to you our brokenness, and the horror and pain of those who grieve.
May those who died find joy in the immortal realms.
May those who mourn them be comforted in this hour of their agony.
And may our prayers and actions be guided by You, dear God,
to create a world where this occurs no more.
Amen

Pat Thorpe Justice The only thing that keeps running through my mind is the song we sing together at our Unity Church in OKC, "Let There Be Peace On Earth," but we sing it as an affirmation of Yes, it begins with me. Dear God, let each of us as we pray for these children, teachers, and their families, pledge us to spreading peace in our country and in our world. Make us instruments of your peace here on earth. Amen

DAVID, I WENT TO BED WITH THE NIGHTMARE OF A BLACK 17 YEAR OLD MALE BEING SHOT AND KILLED BY A GUN AND WOKE UP TIS MORNING WITH NEWS OF C-H-I-L-D-R-E-N BEING KILLED BY THE GUN NIGHTMARE...BUT EVEN WORST IS THE NIGHTMARE OF TRYING TO JUSTIFY IT IS NOT SO BAD THESE GUNS SO DON'T TAKE AWAY OUR RIGHTS TO THEM. example,
last night it was the gun comissioner in fla. telling about how man ypeople in his state have like the man who killed tis 17 yr. old liscens to have these guns...and tis morning the rarional of more children get killed in school in China by knives than by guns here in america is insane...

DAVID ANOTHER MIZUNDERSTANDING ABOUT THE BELIEF TAHT PRAYER IS NOT ALLOWED IN SCHOOLS...
WE OVER LOOK AMERICA IS A NATION OF FREEDOM OF RELIGION THEREFORE IT ISNOT NOT HAVING PRAYER IN SCHOOL IT IS NOT ALLOWING VIOLATION OF OUR LAWS TAHT SAYING A JEWISH STUDENT, A MUSLIM STUDENT A BUDDIST STUDENT AS WELL AS A JEHOVAH WITNESS STUDENT A CATHOLIC STUDENTMUST NOT BE FROCED TO SAY A CHRISTIAN PRAYER IN SCHOOL SINCE IT IS ONLY THECHRISTIAN PRAY WE WANT TO ALLOW IN OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS!...
AGAIN BROWN V BOARD OF EDUCATION HAS MADE TINGS LIKE THIS ILLEGAL IN AMERICA AND JIM DROW CAN NOT RISE AGAIN UNDER THEGUISE OF SEPERAT IS EQUAL THE SAME AS STATED ABOUT A CHILD MUST SAY A CHRISTIAN PRAYER NOMATTER THEIR PERSONAL FAITH IS JIM CROW. EDUCATE!!!EDUCATE!!!EDUCATE!!! FRO PEACE ON EARTH AND GOOD WILL TOWARDS ALL OF MAN KIND. (SMILE)
