OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - A prayer service is planned in Oklahoma City in memory of those killed in the Connecticut school shooting.

The service is planned for 6:30 p.m. Monday at St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral in downtown Oklahoma City. The church says the service is open to the public and that they'll pray for the victims of Friday's school shooting and their families.

Twenty children and six school employees died in Friday's shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown.

Meanwhile, the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum is offering condolences after the shooting. The museum, set up after the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, has posted information on its website on how to deal with trauma and grief.
