Mourners to hold 'community healing' Mass after Arizona shooting


Tucson, Arizona (CNN) -- Mourners will gather at a memorial Mass Tuesday for victims of the weekend shooting outside an Arizona supermarket that killed 6 people and wounded 14 others.
The Mass will be held at 7 p.m. (9 p.m. ET) at St. Odiilia Church in Tucson, Arizona -- where 9-year-old shooting victim Christina Green had her First Communion a year ago.
"Right now it is important as a community to pull together and to reach out in care and concern to all who have been affected by this tragedy," Bishop Gerald Kicanas wrote Monday in a letter to the Roman Catholic Diocese of Tucson.
The alleged shooter, Jared Lee Loughner, 22, appeared in a Phoenix courtroom Monday to formally hear the charges against him -- including two counts of murder, two counts of attempted murder and one count of attempting to kill a member of Congress. CNN
