More than 30 people gathered at the church of U.S. hostage Tom Fox to remember the Christian Peacemaker, whose body was found last week in a suburb of Iraq, and pray for his killers.
Fellow Christians remembered 54-year-old Fox at a special memorial held Sunday at the Hopewell Centre Meeting and offered their prayers of hope and forgiveness for the killers.
Bob Sekinger, a fellow member of the Hopewell Centre, where Fox would worship while home in Clear Brook on his four-month break from peace work in Iraq, said Fox knew the dangers but considered his risks minimal compared to the number of Iraqis who had been killed.
