Excitement in Madisonville

There was a shooting in Madisonville when the mini missionary was here. A cop died. It was on the corner of W and R!!!!! That is our main finding corner!!! We were in Madeira that morning, at
our coordination meeting when it happened. But, we still had a lesson with S that afternoon around 4 and I wasnt going to let some stupid shooting keep us from visiting S. Even though he lives at the corner of W and E which is approximately 500 ft away from where the shooting took place. Members kept calling us and telling us not to go to Madisonville, because there was a shooting and people might be rioting and people were still down there shooting. All I have to say after hearing all
that, and then going down there to visit S and learning the REAL story, is LOL. What a bunch of crap!!!!!!!! First of all, it was a mentally ill guy that had called the cops himself, saying that there
was a crazy guy with a gun shooting people. He hadn't shot a soul until the cops arrived. Then he shot a cop and then another cop shot him and they both died. Later they found a suicide note. So this guy was looking to die. No one was rioting, no one was out there shooting guns all day.  It just goes to show you how scared of Madisonville, some people are. If you really went down to Madisonville, and spent some time down there, you would see just how truly unscary that place is. People who
have never even been there to see it for themselves, hold it up to be just this terrible, dangerous place. It is not. There are real, genuine people there, just trying to make it in this world. I know that the
Lord my God will protect me. I know that he loves his children in Madisonville, and I know that this is the work of Salvation, this is the Lord's work, it is our Father's business, his hand is in it, and
that there is no one who can tell me not to go out and do it, except for the Lord Himself.  The Lord needs S and there is nothing going to stop me from aiding Him in bringing S closer to christ.
