All those in the candlelight vigil for Damar Hamlin joined in prayer minutes ago just outside UC Medical Center.
You can tell how much these people, who may have never even met each other before just now, care about Hamlin’s health and safety.

Andrew was getting ready to drive back to Buffalo from Cincinnati, but decided to stop at UC Medical Center and pray for Damar Hamlin first.
He says Buffalo is a family, and that this family will continue to rally around Hamlin, no matter what adversity comes their way.
