Vigils were held for Charlie Kirk across the nation on Wednesday after he was assassinated during the first stop of “The American Comeback Tour” at a university in Orem, Utah.
The gatherings, some of which took place in deep-blue cities like Seattle, are a testament to the many lives he touched through his life's work.

Tonight @charliekirk11's home church, in Thousand Oaks, CA, held a prayer vigil after Charlie was assassinated for simply speaking words others didn't agree with. 💔 Grateful that Pastor Rob is with Erika and the Kirk family while Pastor Micah led the vigil. https://t.co/31pUjNwUD6

As President Trump said Wednesday during his address to the nation, Kirk's assassination will only amplify his message.
"An assassin tried to silence him with a bullet, but he failed, because together, we will ensure that his voice, his message and his legacy will live on for countless generations to come," the president said. "Today, because of this heinous act, Charlie’s voice has become bigger and grander than ever before — and it’s not even close."
