Some people prepare to attend worship services.
Others use the time for relaxation, play or washing the car. One recent Sunday morning, it wasn't so. Between 9 and 10 a.m., occupants of two vehicles shot at each other as the cars raced down S.E.

They candidly discussed problem areas and mentioned recent developments that have residents optimistic about the future.
