EASTON — The Covenant Church of Easton will be hosting three who lost loved ones at the June 17, 2015, massacre at the Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina — and who decided to forgive the assassin, a step that most people would find impossible to take. The three will be speaking at Covenant on Saturday, Sept. 8, at 7 p.m. The church is located at 1 Sport Hill Road. The speakers will include: The Rev. Anthony Thompson, whose wife, Myra, was leading a Bible study class when she was struck by an assassin’s bullet. Thompson is now traveling the country teaching and preaching on the subject of forgiveness, and he’ll be featured in the soon to be nationally released film documentary entitled “Emanuel.
