Churches react to Obama win

From Houstonbelief.com: Some churches are sad, some are elated:

Reaction to an Obama presidency has been swift and voluminous in churches across America. Here's a sampling of sermons and marquees:

"Exiles in an Obama Nation" marquee of Gracewood Baptist Church, Southhaven, Mississippi.

"God, Help Us" marquee in front of United Methodist Church.

"God has vindicated the black folk. Too long we've been at the bottom of the totem pole, but he has vindicated us, hallelujah...Because when I look toward Washington, D.C., we got a new family coming in...and you know what? They look like us. Amen." Shirley Caesar, Gospel recording artist and pastor of Mount Calvary Word of Faith (Raleigh, North Carolina).
