On the morning of Nov. 2, it seemed as if the short prayer procession from Blessed Teresa of Calcutta to Ferguson City Hall might not come off at all.
Concern had been expressed that the event, simply titled "Lean-In Prayer Procession," might be perceived as yet another in a long line of protests -- sometimes violent -- in Ferguson since the shooting death of Michael Brown on Aug. 9.
Community residents are weary of those.
