Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had just gotten to work. I always come in a little early, and make it a point to go in the studio to see the morning guys. I walked in, and heard, "Hey look, an airplane just hit the World Trade Center." As we stood in awe, we thought (and prayed) that it were a mere accident. The guys went on air and told what had happened, and the phones began ringing. Being a Christian radio station, we were especially flooded with calls, prayers and opinions. Then, the second tower was hit, and so on.... The day was mere somber. We quickly organized a prayer vigil on the lawn of the CityPlex Towers, which ironically is the tallest building in Oklahoma (60 stories). We work on the 45th floor, 2/3 of the way up. Family members were calling, urging us to go home. No one did. We stood proud, knowing that we were the voice of comfort for the Christian community in Tulsa and surrounding cities and they needed us in a time of terror. Calls came in all day, one after the next, regarding announcements of Prayer Meetings for the evening in almost every church for miles and miles. We announced them all. We didn't play up the concerts, speakers and movie premiers we had coming up...they were no longer important. It didn't really hit until I got home that evening, after church. My son had colored a huge (11x17) picture of a flag at school which says "Proud To Be American - Austin Donohue." I broke down, hugged both my kids, and we prayed. That picture still hangs on our front door today. It reminds us of the events, of who we are and of what we are proud of...the United States Of America and our Freedom.
