Stabbing at Grace Baptist

Would not have worked out so well for the murderer at our church. Almost every adult male is packing.
years ago, I was pastor of a local Baptist church in a depressed area of the capital city of the Philippines. Unknown to the members, I always had a veinte nueve. That's what they usually call a fan knife, tucked behind me, covered by my untucked shirt or in my pocket when my shirt is tucked.
It was a depressed area, jobless people all around, mostly drunk most of the time, drugged some of the time,even at daytime, not to mention communist sympathizers, cadres, and that party's "regulars" on R&R, plus a sprinkling of Muslim fundamentals sometimes, also on R&R, or whatever.
By God's providence, never had to use it.
Those guys I mentioned seemed to be always friendly towards me, and the church.
But, you never know.
