Soul Box Project display at Lansing church honors 1,406 gun violence victims

A2D News Desk

A display called the Soul Box Project is set up at Central United Methodist Church in Lansing, featuring 1,406 folded boxes that represent people killed by guns in Michigan and the United States.

Church member Susan Grettenberger said the boxes are folded by volunteers to honor victims of various causes, including suicides, the Oxford and Michigan State school shootings, and a Grand Haven family. Some boxes bear names and dates, while others remain blank to represent unknown victims.

The project aims to raise awareness of gun violence without calling for a total ban, focusing on keeping guns away from those at risk. Visitors can create their own soul boxes and receive free gun locks during the display's run through Friday, Nov. 13.
