We pray for your healing and peace.

It is sad for those left behind but a glorious time with God…Now she has all these precious children to welcome and fuss over..We are very sorry for your pain and loss…words cannot lessen your grief but with faith and hope and prayers this sorrow will not shadow the love you had for your loved ones. For all the ones left to mourn..God was with each one and they were not alone….all the grandmas, pappaws, nonnies and poppies will keep them close until we get there! May God keep you close and comfort you ………Lucy’s girls, grandchildren, greatgrandchildren and those that she loved as her children…We are a BLESSED bunch.
When the news broke of the shooting, I as a mother could feel the fear that you all must have gone through on Friday. It is a sickening feeling to know that your child is never out of harms way, even at their school. My heart goes out to all of you. That kind of tragedy never should happen to anyone especially children. Time will heal the pain that you are going through and I wish that there was something that I could do to help from NC. My sincere condolences to those who lost a loved one and friend. It is truly a senseless tragedy.

We can’t begin to understand your loss. You are in our prayers. There are not enough words to express the sorrow
To all of the Sandy Hook School and Community. Our hearts are heavy all over the world knowing that we have lost such beautiful children and teachers, just knowing the innocent had to experience that kind of horror. My prayer for each family is that God wraps his loving arms around each of you and that he opens up a window of understanding into this sadness. This has forever changed our world like no other but as long as we hold on to the Saviour and let him guide us all, we will make it through. Let God be our Captain and lead us all down the right path. We all need to take time to think, because it is the source of power, Take time to be quiet for the opportunity to seek God, and also take time to be aware to help others. And we must never forget to take time to love, and be loved because that is truly one of God’s greatest gifts and I find that in all these things God will always be there to help us.
As a School Psychologist working in a small rural school system in Western North Carolina and based in an Elementary School, my heart goes out to the families of the children and staff at Sandy Hook. We also, are devastated by your loss and stunned by the magnitude of it. It seems unbearable. Life is so fragile. An Ursula LeGuin quote comes to mind: ‘An act is not, as young men think, like a rock that one picks up and throws, and it hits or misses, and that’s the end of it. When the rock is lifted, the earth is lighter, the hand that holds it, heavier. When it is thrown, the circuits of the stars respond, and where it strikes or falls, the universe is changed.’ In memory and in celebration of those at Sandy Hook who brought joy to your lives and made this world a brighter and better place.
We are so sorry for your losses, as parents and as friends and family. The hurt never goes away but oh those precious memories. Always know that God is with each and everyone in Newtown.
May God bless you and remember you are in our prayers.

MAY OUR BLESSED LORD COMFORT YOU ALL THRU THIS MOST SENSLESS ACT OF EVIL. MY PRAYERS ARE FOR THE FAMILIES THAT WILL BE WITHOUT THAT ONE SPECIAL CHILD, THAT ONE SPECIAL WIFE, SISTER OR MOTHER THIS CHRISTMAS. OUR HEARTS GO OUT TO EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU. MAY GOD BLESS NEWTOWN CONN.
Please know that you all are in my prayers and thoughts. My heart absolutely aches right along with the rest of this country and indeed the whole world. Praise be to Jesus that all of those sweet little children are safely in His wonderful care right now!! I will never forget you people there in Newtown, CT. May God bless each and every one of you all with the peace that only He can give!! In Christ’s love, Bruce Robinson

Dear parents of lost students,
Hi my name is Macie Stafford. I live in North Carolina and I go to Harris Middle school. I have a 4 year old brother and a 10 year old sister and I really wouldn’t know what to do if anything ever happened to them. My mother is a teacher and loves her students a s much as her own kids. My great grandpa passed away a few years ago and I knew that God is with him and I know now that
God is with your child now in heaven. I am so sorry for your loss and I am praying for you.
Love, Macie Stafford
To the families that lost family members in Newtown,CT:I want to say I am deeply sorry because I wouldn’t know how it would feel to lose my little brother.

Keeping you in my prayers,
Jared.C

Hello, my name is Katherine Elizabeth Frye. I just wanted to say that I am so sorry for what happened to all of your children. I can feel some of your pain. Almost six years ago on February 6th, 2007, a deputy, who did not follow the very rules he enforces, crashed into a car that my mom, my sister, my grandmother and I were inside. My sister, Kennedy Elizabeth Frye, was 2 years old at the time. She was killed instantly. So I understand the loss of a sibling and have empathy for your suffering. I am a 7th grader at Harris Middle School in Spruce Pine, North Carolina, in the county of Mitchell County. I am praying for all of you.
Sincerely,
-Katherine Elizabeth Frye

My heart breaks for each of you that lost a loved one in this tragic event. Please know that you are in my families thoughts and prayers. May God give you the strength to get through the days ahead.
My name is Macie Boone, I am 12 years old. I have a little brother, he is in first grade and his name is Trey.
I understand your pain and I know it is hard losing someone. I do not believe that anyone could and has ever been as brave as you all have been. I lost a person who was like a sister to me. Her name was Clair Elise Atkins. I was away at the time when she passed. Clair and I were both eight at the time, I never got to say good-bye.
So I am sending this letter to say I am truly sorry and I will be praying for everyone.
-Love Macie Browne Boone
Hello, my name is Elisabeth Honeycutt. I have one older sister, an older brother and two little brothers in elementary school. One of them is seven and one of them is ten. I cannot imagine how you feel. If I lost one of my little brothers I would be all to pieces. I’m sure that no one knows how you feel but I know someone that does know how you feel and that’s Jesus. He loves you and will always give you the peace and comfort you need even in your darkest times. Jesus can help and He will. I’m sorry that this happened and I hope that things will get better.
Sincerely,
Elisabeth

Hello my name is Katy H. I am from Western NC.I live in a small town similar to Newtown CT.I am very sorry for you loss and I am here to offer my condolences.I know that you are probably asking yourself ‘Why God did this to you?’.If you ask him for help he will come.Even though he /she is not here phyically they will always be with you in spirit.I just wanted you to know God and I love you.
Jeremiah 29:11-13
‘For I know the plans that I have for you,’ declares the LORD, ‘plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope. ‘Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. ‘And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.
I can understand how you feel. My family has lost many, and a few were close to me. These children were sweet and kind. We should always remember them in our hearts, and hope to stop these kinds of things from happening in any more schools. While I have never experienced losing a sister or mother, I know that you never truly lose them in your hearts. I give my hope and love to those that are hurt, and those that have lost. God bless you all. 🙂

I’m sorry for what happen they did not deserve that. We have prayed for you in my church, and i must tell you how sorry for your loss.
May it help you to know that an entire country, even the entire world, grieves with you and is praying for you. As the President said ‘our hearts are broken’. I am not a parent but I do have a niece and two nephews who are now adults and I can’t imagine having to lose one of them, especially when they were 6 or 7 years old, to a senseless tragedy. God will take care of you. Seek Him.
Our hearts and prayers goes to each family who not only lost a loved one during this awful incedent but with each one affected. We dont understand why this happened but rememeber the Lord is always in control. May The Lord comfort each heart.
…for the Lord shall be thine
everlasting light, and the days
of thy mourning shall be ended.
Isaiah 60:20
May you remember always
that, for every sorrow,
there is comfort…
for every sadness,
there is healing…
for each loss–
the promise of new life.
With Sympathy,
The Sluder Family

May god bless you all and know that he is with each and everyone of you.
I want to start out by saying how I cannot believe that someone would have the heart to do anything like that. I mean little kids nor adults didn’t deserve what happened. It breaks my heart just to think about it. And basically what I’m trying to say is I’m really sorry about this incident. And the teachers were very brave, and I respect that. I’m praying for everyone who has lost a family member or friend in that shooting.

To the families that have lost part of their families in this tragedy,
My name is Sarah Grace McKinney. I am an 8th grader at Harris Middle School in Mitchell County, NC. There are no words for how I feel about the tragedy that has struck your town. I can not say I am sorry, because it will not cover the emotions I feel for you. I know how you must feel right now, because I have felt the agony of losing the person who once was your life. My grandfather and grandmother passed away this past year. I know you may not believe me, but I have felt the pain you are feeling. I will be praying for you always.

I don’t understand why some one would do this sort of stupid, devilish action. I wish I could change the thoughts of the man that did this, and I wish I could have stopped him. But, I don’t think any one could have known what was going to happen on this wretched day. I understand what I can of how you feel, I have a little sister named Hannah.

Dear Families,
My name is Sophie Watson and i’m a eighth grader at Harris Middle school. I heard about this on Friday and even though I didn’t know these kids, it made me think about my sister and how bad it would make me feel. I would be devastated without her and I can’t even imagine how you must feel. It sickens me to know that there are people in this world who could do this. I’m praying for everyone who are affected by this. Love, Sophie<3
I am sorry for the loss of the ones you loved so much. We will continue to pray for each and every one of you.
Dear families,
I am very truly sorry for the loss of your dearly loved ones. I would like to say that I’m praying for everyone that has been affected by this tragedy. Those children didn’t deserve this. I don’t understand why someone would do this, especially to little five year olds. They had wonderful lives ahead of them.I hope and pray that God will give you guys strength and will lift you up and give you faith during this time. One of my favorite bible verses are, ‘I can do all things through which Christ strenghten me.’I have faith in you guys!

I feel bad for you. Me and my family is praying for you and your family.I am sorry for what happened to your kids and family.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Hi, my name’s Erin Hoyle, I’m a 8th grader in Harris middle school. I’m really sorry for what happened to your loved ones. I can’t imagine going through what you have to. I hate it when I hear about people who hurt kids, how could they. I have a little cousin, I love him like a little brother and he even calls me sissy, he’s in first grade the same as some of those kids. If any thing like that ever happened to him, I’d almost die. No child deserves that to happen, and neither should the teacher’s who died to protect those children. No parent, sister, or brother should have to go through having their child taken away like this. I’m praying for all the families who lost someone, and for the victims. I hope nothing like this ever happens again.
My name is Sarah Buchanan, and I am an 8th grade student at Harris Middle School. I heard about the events that occurred on Friday. I am so sorry about all that has happened. As soon as I heard it brought me to tears. I don’t know why such a terrible thing would happen. I have been praying every night for peace and comfort to you all. My step mom had a baby girl last week, and as soon as I saw her I felt such a strong love for her. As I read what happened all I could think about is how much pain everyone was going through; and how I would feel if something would happen to my little sister. Keeping you in my prayers.
Much love, Sarah Buchanan
I am sorry for your kid and your family. You are still in my prayers.They did not deserve it. I am very sorry.
I am so sorry for your kid and your family.You will always be in my prayers. I hope things get better for you.

For the families who have lost a loved one in this unspeakable tragedy, I pray that God will enfold all of you in His arms and bring you a measure of comfort and peace. And for all the people of Sandy Hook, please know that millions of people around the world are heavy-hearted because of what you are going through. We pray that you will find strength and comfort as you deal with this tragedy.
Hello,
My name is Courtney Thomas. I am 13 years old, and in the 8th grade in Western NC.
On Friday, I saw where all of these celebrities said, ‘they were praying for Newtown, CT.’ I had no clue what they was talking about, so I asked my dad. He explained all of it, I was speechless. I could not get over how someone would do that to little kids. My sister is 6 years old, turning 7 in 8 days. I don’t know what all you are going through, but I know if I was to lose my sister I would have no clue what to do. She has saved me in so many ways.
I am praying for you, and the rest of the families. Your beautiful child is with God. No more pain, or suffering on Earth. I know you are sad, possibly angry. But you will be with your child again one day. He, or she will be happy to see you again. They are looking down at you from Heaven right now. Stay strong..I know it seems hard to do. Trust me, it does. But you can do it.
Lots of love,
Courtney<3
To the person who is reading this letter,
I know there will be no words that I can say to ease the pain that you are feeling, and nothing to calm the grief in your heart, but I want to tell you how utterly and completely sorry that I am that this happened. My name is Kaylee McMurray and I am a 8th grader at Harris Middle School in North Carolina. I may not have known your child personally, but I know that they were a wonderful little boy or girl with a great spirit and beautiful light. I know that they are indeed in a better place and looking down upon you this very minute, and you will one day be with them again. They will never be forgotten and forever remembered. My prayers are to all who were lost, and whose lives were forever changed. I hope that you will be able to find peace.

To the families who are suffering, My name is Faith Ledford. I am an 8th grade student at Harris Middle School in Spruce Pine, North Carolina. I am so sorry for what happened. I do not understand why this happened. I also can not say I know how you feel, because I can’t even think about how I would feel if this happened here. One reason in particular is because my little sister will be going to kindergarten next year. If she was to die I could not imagine life with out her. I am so very sorry for what happened and I want you to know I am praying for you. I know this does not seem like much, but I want you to know you are getting a lot of prayers,empathy, love, and so much more.
With much love, Faith Ledford

Dear people who lost there love ones
I just want to say i am sorry for your loss. What happened Friday did not need to happen. Every one who died in that school is in a better place now with God. God will help every one through this hard time. All the kids and teachers did not deserve what happened. I will keep every one in my prayers.
For all the people who lost their loved ones during the shooting in the Sandy Hook just know that we all feel for you. We wish you the best and hope that it gets better for you. I couldn’t imagine being a parent or sibling to one of the children. You guys are so brave. I could have never done what you guys are doing. To all the students who depended upon their teachers just to be able to survive. It was inspiring how the teachers risked their lives for students. I also wanna say that this tradegy has made all of America very sad the past days, but we know that we need to keep you in our thoughts more than anybody at a time like this. The children didn’t deserve this at all and I can’t think what would drive anyone into doing such a thing. Everytime I see anything on the news about the shooting I think about the parents of the children and the brothers or sister of the shootings and I remember to say a extra prayer for you tonight before I go to bed. Even the kids that were more lucky than others still had witness a heartbreaking event. School is supposed to be a safe enviroment for everybody who wants to get a good education, but thats not the case anymore. We know that you guys are having a really hard time right now. Just remember your not alone on this. All of America stands with you guys who have had children in the accident and we just want you to know we love you. I know could never go through what you guys are. We really wish we could do more for you guys than write a simply letter but if we can do something little it could turn to something big. We love you and wish you the best.
Dear Families,
I am from a small town and had heard about the families on the news. I am very sorry for your losses in your community. The teachers were very brave to protect the children. The children were very young and we will all remember this incident in the future. You will always remember them as they were because you know them better than anyone. You are always in our prayers.
Love,
A student at
Harris Middle School
To the community of New Town, and the Sandy Hook School. I am so sorry to hear what happened on Friday, This memory will never leave my mind. There are no words to express how I feel. No one should ever have to go through this type of tragedy that the people of New Town and people all around the world have gone through these past heart breaking days. The thought of someone doing something like that makes me sick. The brave teachers and students we have lost will always be remembered. Each and every family that has been affected by this will be in my prayers.
I am so sorry about your loss. I will keep you in my prayers. My church has been keeping you on our prayer list. Many prayers have went up to heaven to the Lord up above. Jesus loves each and everyone.
I am so sorry for what you have and are still going through.I don’t understand why anyone would want to kill innocent children.It breaks my heart to even think about it.But with the grace of Jesus Christ you can get through this.I don’t know if you are a Christian or not,but whether you are or not Jesus still loves and cares for you,And he WILL help you through this if you just ask him too.I know that if you pray about this you will be able to recover from this terrible thing.None of the children or anyone else that got killed deserved it.It kills me just to think of all the innocent lives that were took on that day.Whenever I feel sad or down I remember this bible verse-‘I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me.Philippians 4:13’.And I know that this burden will always be with you but it will get better.I will keep everyone one that lost a child or a loved one in my prayers.If you ever need anyone to talk to just remember Jesus is always there.(:
Dear families,

But I know all the little ones and adults went to the big light in the sky and there watching over all of us.I am very sorry for all of the families who lost someone,I will pray for you all.May God be with you all!

To all those parents and children that was killed in the shooting at Connecticut I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. I have lost loved ones that was so close to me too before it’s hard. But keeping your head up and staying strong for the others can make a difference. I didn’t know any of the parents, teachers, and students but it upsets me still. God will take care of all his children and help you through your loss. Just remember that they’ll always be with you no matter what. I know it’s hard now but just keep praying and being there for others and you will get through this. You are all kept in my thoughts and prayers. I couldn’t imagine something like this and being as brave as you guys actually are. None of you should feel guilty for what happened. You had absolutely no control over any of it. They say some things do happen for a reason and something great will eventually come out of it. Stay safe.
I’m am very sorry for what happened to the school,the families and the town it self.No kid or anybody deserves what happened at that school.My thoughts and prayers are with the families there that had loved ones get killed in that event.It’s hard to believe that someone would kill kindergartners and there own mother and then kill there self.I pray the the family’s can make it through this hars time.
I taken a long time to think about what to write hear for a good while, and to be honest, I have came to the conclusion that there are no words to describe the pain you parents, friends, and loved ones, to hear ‘ I’m sorry for your lost ‘ would not do a justice. It would just add to the numbers of times you heard it. I hope that hearing this might help. I don’t know if it will, I hope, of course, in a situation as you guys are in now all you can really do is hope.
I am so sorry for what you’ve had and are still having to go through. These children are in a better place now, where they don’t have to face the troubles and trials of this cruel world. My prayers and thoughts go out to you and the hero’s lost. The children had really only just begun the journey of this life, but now we know they get to start an amazing journey in Heaven with God. I couldn’t imagine how you feel, these children done nothing to deserve this. It breaks my heart just thinking about it. Keep strong and keep the faith, and always remember they’re in a better place. Just remember the bible verse – ‘I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13’ But everything happens for a reason, you just have to trust in the Lord. I hope and pray nothing like this will happen again, my thoughts and prayers go out to you, and all of Sandy Hook’s teachers and students. God bless you, and I wish you all the best.
I am very sorry what all of you had to go through. I would really wish that none of this would had happened. They did not deserve this and really wish you all the best. After I had heard this I had all of the families that had went through this in my prayers. The kids that had to go through this are at a better place now and it’s not a very easy thing to go through. I just wish you all the best to Hook’s teachers, students and parents and never give up and always keep on going. And God will always be there for you all.

A Prayer for Sandy Hook
Creator we ask for your help.
Help us bear the unbearable pain.
Help us endure the unendurable burden.
Creator give us courage, wisdom and determination.
These things we need to make our children and grandchildren safe.
Creator help us see through the tears when we look to the heavens.
Help us see the bright light of twenty six new stars in the night sky.
Help us see the new crowns of light in every sunset and sunrise.
Amen
Our deepest sympathy to all the families who lost loved ones and to the citizens of Newtown. We know all the children have been welcomed up in heaven and all those who were killed that day are in a much better place.Take one day at a time. Cherish your memories. I lost my daddy back in April.It helps to talk about that person amd it helps to cry. It allows us to cherish our memories.We know it’s hard to lose a child, especilly in such a tragic way.Just remember the song ‘Jesus Loves Me’.He loves all the children of the world. Again our deepest sympathy to everyone.
There are no words to say except that our prayers, our thoughts, and our broken hearts are walking this journey with you, and we will not forget your loved ones, your famiies, and your community as you live this journey. We stand with you in faith, spirit, and in love. God bless and keep all of you!
As a mother, grandmother, and commpassionate human being, I feel the sadness and pain of your loss. My tears have been many as I ponder these beautiful souls whose lives you will dearly miss. I will release 26 white doves, symbolicly honoring these sweet souls who have joined in spirit to make their final journey home, together.
Our family is saddened by this senseless tragedy. We don’t know what to expect each day in our lives. We think about our grandson when he goes to school each day ever since this happened, and we let him know that we love him. We pray that each day will get easier and that special memories will bring smiles. May God bless all of you!
I have two sisters and I couldn’t imagine losing them. It would break my heart. So, there is no telling how you feel right now. I’m so sorry for what has happened in this tragic event. I hope everything gets better, and things go good in the future. I’ll keep you in my prayers.
Sincerely,
Brody Smith
Dear Parents
I know that you are in a lot of pain over these children but they are in a place were they won’t feel any more pain. I don’t know why this man would shoot these children. It is just inhuman to do that. Please know that your children are loved.
sincerely
Jacob

Hello,
My name is Courtney Thomas. I am 13 years old, and in the 8th grade in Western NC.
On Friday, I saw where all of these celebrities said, ‘they were praying for Newtown, CT.’ I had no clue what they was talking about, so I asked my dad. He explained all of it, I was speechless. I could not get over how someone would do that to little kids. My sister is 6 years old, turning 7 in 8 days. I don’t know what all you are going through, but I know if I was to lose my sister I would have no clue what to do. She has saved me in so many ways.
I am praying for you, and the rest of the families. Your beautiful child is with God. No more pain, or suffering on Earth. I know you are sad, possibly angry. But you will be with your child again one day. He, or she will be happy to see you again. They are looking down at you from Heaven right now. Stay strong..I know it seems hard to do. Trust me, it does. But you can do it.
Lots of love,
Courtney<3
