Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound...

What a tribute to nine beautiful souls.  

I was in awe of the President's words and his conviction.     It's all about the LOVE!

This eulogy and the meaning of what happened will be a part of history.   A turning point I pray.

As he said, may GRACE be our guide, and as Michael Jackson wrote, to inspire us to "CHANGE THE WORLD."  

Bless their sweet and loving souls.

I thought the service was very uplifting, honest and an affirmation of faith and humanity. He spoke to our better angels.

The president not only celebrated the pastor but also the other 8 and what it means to be an American. Jmo.

I played the excerpt (Amazing Grace) from the eulogy from BBC America for my sister (while she was out) and she too began to cry.

Someone on tv said that hate came to a house of love, so, in the end, hate met its match and was conquered by love.  The souls and spirits of people who can forgive, who can embrace love, and who have compassion for one another are admirable warriors in my opinion.

Cynthia Hurd, Rev. Clementa Pinckney, Rev Sharonda Coleman-Singleton, Tywanza Sanders, Ethel Lance, Rev. Depayne Middleton-Doctor, Susie Jackson, Rev Daniel Simmons, Sr., Myra Thompson, rest in peace in the arms of the angels.
