It was a scene from hell with overturned wooden benches, pools of blood and the stench of death.
Face down under a table in the African Inland Church in Garissa lay the body of a woman, cut down by a hail of bullets on the very day she had dedicated to worship and give thanks to God for his blessings.
She was among 17 Kenyans killed when four cowardly, masked gunmen chose to turn their weapons on worshippers in two churches in Garissa, leaving behind shattered lives.
However, the number of dead could go up.
Those who survived the attack inside the AIC church ran out only to meet a burst of heavy gunfire that claimed more lives.
Up to 60 badly wounded worshippers were rushed to hospital.
Twelve people died at the AIC Churches but the number increased after six more succumbed to serious injuries at the Garissa Provincial hospital where they had been rushed for treatment.
