Luria Sampson had plans Saturday morning, and they didn’t include prayer – not at first.
Driving east down West Center Street in Milwaukee, he was on a course for his daughter’s house, his thoughts focused on her safety in a city suffering through a surge in shooting deaths. But when he slowed for the stoplight at 51st Street, an unexpected sight gently altered his morning travels.
Sampson, 59, stopped his car, and prayer found its way into his plans.
