Pastor's Wife Extends Forgiveness

(via FotF's Pastor's Weekly Briefing)

Cindy Winters extended forgiveness towards the gunman, Terry Sedlacek, who opened fire in a Maryville, Ill., church, killing her pastor-husband, Fred Winters. She says, "I do not have any hatred, or even hard feelings, towards him. We have been praying for him. One of the first things that my daughter said to me after this happened was, 'You know, I hope that he comes to learn to love Jesus through all of this.' We are not angry at all, and we really firmly believe that he can find hope and forgiveness and peace through this, by coming to know Jesus. And we hope that that happens for him." [CBSNews.com]
