A year ago on May 15, nearly 50 congregants attending their Sunday service in a Laguna Woods church didn’t think the day would suddenly turn into horror when a man opened fire in the building that killed one and injured five in attendance.

Hundreds gathered at the location on May 14 marking the anniversary of the mass shooting and memorializing Dr. John Cheng, who was fatally wounded after apprehending, along with the congregation’s former pastor Rev. Billy Chang, the gunman.
