As many of you may be aware, a shooting occurred this evening at the Virginia Beach Municipal Center. At this point in time, we are unaware of any Virginia Wesleyan community members directly affected by this tragedy.
This news is deeply upsetting—even more so because it hits so close to home.
When tragedy occurs, it is paramount to take care of ourselves so that we may in turn take care of each other. I know we can count on the Virginia Wesleyan family to support our surrounding community as details unfold.
Please remember that our Counseling Services office and University Chaplain are available as resources, and join me as we keep those affected in our prayers.
