INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) - Spiritual leaders from all different faiths gathered in Indianapolis Thursday to remember the Newtown shooting victims and to speak out for gun control.

The midday vigil at Christ Church Cathedral was to feature an impressive list of speakers, from pastors to rabbis to imams, all honoring those who lost their lives and standing up for gun control.
