More from the Christian Post article:
During Wednesday’s performance, Shryock and two other performers were making an ascent on ropes as they played the three wise men on the journey to Bethlehem. They were approaching a star when Shryock fell headfirst to the concrete floor.“Toward the ending of the song she came loose,” Daniel Doepke, 55, of Middletown, told The Cincinnati Enquirer. “I can’t describe how heart-wrenching it was, her fall to a hard concrete surface.”
Natalie Hastings, a spokeswoman for the church, told AP, “I know the performers wore some kind of harness and they got some professional training especially to do this.”
Shryock had some gymnastics training and was excited about performing the rope act, said Melissa Davish, a friend and former gymnastics club teammate at Bowling Green State University, to AP.
While the remaining performances have been canceled, Shryock’s parents have encouraged the church to continue with a Christmas experience so that people would hear the message of Jesus and “because that’s the way Keri would have wanted it.”
Would you take a moment to pray for Keri’s family, and the Crossroads family today? Maybe you could take time to write a prayer in our comments section for them.
Thanks,
