The President of the United States, Joe Biden has attended a church service held for the victims of the Robb Elementary School shooting in Uvalde, Texas. 

During the service, held on Sunday 29th of May, San Antonio Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller told the congregation: "Our hearts are broken."

On Tuesday 24th of May, 19 school children, and two teachers, by gunman Salvador Ramos.

The mass at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, focused on the children of the 600 parish members in attendance.
