Yesterday, December 13, the Cathedral Church of St John the Divine in Harlem, New York, held their Christmas Concert. It was their first community event since the coronavirus pandemic hit. Unfortunately, an armed citizen opened fire, and the suspect has been fatally shot by constabularies after.
In a Twitter thread and their website, the church stated that everyone associated with the church and those who were partaking in the Christmas caroling is safe.
The church wrote, It is horrible that our choir s gift to New York City, a much-needed afternoon of song and unity, was cut short by this shocking act of violence. We will remain strong, together, and serve as a safe space for prayer, meditation, and celebration during the upcoming holiday season.
