Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: We were getting ready to go to Church for a funeral... I was walking downstairs and my husband was turning on the TV and I thought "we didn't have time". Well, that's when I saw the 2nd plane fly into the 2nd Tower... I was stunned... Paul told me he had just heard about it on the radio about plane 1... After watching, we had to leave...my first comment was "See how great the builders were, the building is still standing." Well we went to the funeral and told everyone in the Choir... They were stunned and bewildered...we knew of no attack news yet... After Mass, we went to the cemetery, and heard from one of the people that the towers collapsed... and then about the Pentagon and the aborted Pennsylvania flight... We were stunned...shocked...tearful...praying... We were glued to the TV for more news... Tearful as we saw people jumping out of the buildings... Tearful as we saw the towers on fire (over and over again)... We attended a Mass at 7pm that evening...We pray for America... We prayed for our President...and Our Nation We watched America deal with the smoke, debris, and horror on people's faces... We could have as a nation fallen apart...but we didn't... We could have continued to be afraid...but we aren't... We could have given into fear...but we didn't... It was only after some hours that I realized that my sister was in New York... I called her and she had left at 8am that morning before the towers were struck... I called my niece and she had many friends in those buildings...many friends missing... I told her only prayer will be of comfort to her...find somewhere to worship the Comforter...
