Oklahoma City, OK – Services held for slain pastor

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Nearly 500 people packed an Oklahoma City church to remember a pastor who was slain inside her small church in Anadarko as she prepared for a Sunday service.

Carol Daniels was found dead Aug. 23 after people coming for services notified police that the door to the church was locked. Police found her body inside. Authorities said she died of multiple sharp force injuries. No arrests have been made.

Pastor Ivan Henderson told mourners at Daniels' funeral Monday to pray that investigators find the killer, that this person is caught to prevent more violence and that people find the strength to forgive the killer.

The funeral began at 1 p.m. and lasted nearly three hours.
