Area pastors are getting ready to remember 9/11. Chicago Heights Pastor Arthur Guice is the Cook County Coordinator for a nationwide prayer gathering called Cry Out America! that marks the 10^th anniversary of 9/11. He is calling on people of all faiths to make time for a prayer for renewal and awakening this coming Sept. 11. "9/11 was a wakeup call," Guice said. "It's amazing to me that the two sites (the World Trade Center and the Pentagon) that were attacked were symbols of American pride, military and money.
