Reuters/Shannon Stapleton A 25-year-old North Carolina pastor, whose ministry sought to end violence, was shot to death outside his home this week, days after he was ordained and proposed to his girlfriend. Robert Booth, 25, the father of a 2-year-old son and who started Hood Holiness Church in High Point a few months ago with the goal of ending violence, was shot on Tuesday night after he walked up to some young people wearing black ski masks in his neighborhood, Dwayne Waden Jr., Booth’s associate pastor, told WFMY. “He probably looked at those boys and saw himself,” Waden was quoted as saying. “He wasn’t encouraging gang violence. He wasn’t selling dope. He was preaching the Word of God. That’s it. And they just took his life.”
