Overflow crowd at reopened AME church in Charleston

BBC story here

From the article:

The names of the nine people shot dead at an African-American church in South Carolina have been read out in its first service since Wednesday's attack.

One visiting reverend, John Gillison, said the "devil entered" but failed to "take control of your church."

A black cloth was placed over the chair of Reverend Clementa Pinckney, who was one of those killed by the gunman.
