My heart was moved this morning as I read this story.
The Rev. Michael Pfleger has ordered the American flag at St. Sabina Church hung upside-down -- a historic sign of distress -- to symbolize the growing death toll among Chicago's youngsters. So far this school year, 36 children and teens have been slain -- more than one a week -- and Pfleger is among a chorus of Chicagoans who say the slayings aren't getting the attention they deserve.
The death and carnage of young people! This to me is a very sad state of affairs. Where are the parents? What is happening in the schools? Sorry! My questions would go on and on. Personally, even though I do not know any of these young people, who have lost their life’s. I will asking our God to help this group of youth!
The complete story can be found on the CNN front page.

As Mervi passes this way, is just a way for Mervi to express his thoughts. Some religious, some political and others just a thought about this thing we call life.

This is tragic... Chicago, this country, our world is showing signs of distress. Relate this to imminent birth in the natural. Crucial point.
