Orlando: President Nelson meets with Pulse Nightclub Owner


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

This seems a rather remarkable and unlikely meeting:  remarkable first that the owner of the club was invited to the reception; and second, that she was willing to attend:

'Barbara Poma, the CEO and founder of onePULSE Foundation, said words from the highest ranking Latter-day Saint official meant a lot.  “I was moved that he knew what we were doing, moved that he was so kind to me,” she said.'

What is the Pulse Nightclub?

It's a gay club in downtown Orlando.  On 12 June 2016, Omar Mateen (who had sworn allegiance to ISIS) entered the club and shot and killed 49 people and injured 53 more.

Thanks for the info.  I didn't remember the connection.

The article I read said that church members, maybe on offical auspices, were part of a community outreach and support after the tragedy.
