From Gabrielle Sarann at NBC5/WPTV: "Christian, Jewish and Islamic faiths came together" at MCC

Note that Rev. Dr. Brown will be giving the invocation at Lake Worth's Commission meeting tomorrow (Tuesday). Below is an excerpt from the text of the story by WPTV:

     An LGBT church in Palm Beach Gardens held a prayer service honoring the 49 lives lost.
Members of the Christian, Jewish and Islamic faiths came together at the Metropolitan Community Church.
     The faces of 49 innocent victims that never made it out of Pulse nightclub last Sunday shined by candlelight.
     The names of each one was read aloud.
     Rev. Dr. Lea Brown, senior pastor of the church, says the shooting has caused unbelievable sorrow for her congregation. “We just go through waves of grief and frustration and rage and grief,” said Brown.
