Paris, Our Thoughts and Prayers

.  .  .

It has been an incredible 24 hours.  I was home Friday, had FOX news on as I was cleaning and picking things up around the house.  I started to notice that the headlines on the news weren’t changing and I kept hearing the same words repeated, Paris… shooting… hostages…deaths. What was unfolding before my eyes wasn’t reality to me, but it was.  I sat glued to my chair watching the news as the events happened minute by minute.  At one point,  all the news organizations were asked not to televise the situation developing as Paris police stormed the Batacian theater to rescue the hostages.  The situation ended and the unwanted news of those who were killed and injured were reported along with the other attacks that happened at the soccer stadium and restaurants and bars.

A total of six different incidents occurred almost simultaneously in Paris.  The locations are highlighted in green on the map. For more info, click here.

To keep the country of France in our thoughts and prayers I wanted to share some pictures of the beautiful city of Paris.  They were taken by Bill from the Eiffel tower in the springtime.

We stand with you!
