About 150 people stood outside Beech Grove’s City Hall building at 7 p.m. to attend a prayer vigil organized by the city of Beech Grove and the Mayor’s Faith-Based Roundtable.
At the end of a series of speeches and prayers, Pastor Dan Bailey invited people to take a small plastic light from the cardboard box at the top of City Hall steps as a symbol of hope.
“Shine the light, chase away the darkness, go into our community and set this city on fire with a light from above that the darkness must flee,” he said.
Earlier in the day, another crowd of about 200 people gathered at Monument Circle for a different vigil. Those attending the downtown vigil were asked to bring flowers, pictures and candles.
