“It is a special event and probably could be pretty emotional,” Fencel said.”We are going to gather in Joe K’s parking lot. If people want to just park they can stand by their cars and social distance or come closer to the prayer service event.”
Rev. Bev Kreig will lead the prayer service. Musician Matt Taul will also play “Amazing Grace” at the prayer service. Carey Keay had a stroke and has been hospitalized since that occurred.
