Lakewood Church to Host Healing Service After Shooting Leaves Child Critically Injured

The service aims to unite the community following an incident where a woman opened fire, injuring two, including her son.

A Houston megachurch led by Joel Osteen will hold a service of 'healing and restoration' following a shooting incident that left two wounded, including a 7-year-old boy who lost a portion of his brain's frontal lobe.
The shooter, identified as Genesse Moreno, entered Lakewood Church with her son and an AR-style rifle, opening fire before being killed by security.
The motive behind the shooting remains unclear, with investigations ongoing. Moreno had a history of mental illness and legal access to firearms despite previous concerns.
The 7-year-old victim, Samuel Moreno-Carranza, has undergone multiple surgeries and remains in critical condition, with significant brain damage.
The incident has sparked discussions on gun control, mental health issues, and the need for 'red flag' laws in Texas.
