Video of the Aug. 10 meeting of the Suffolk Public Schools shows what unfolded when an individual identified as Angela Kilgore sought to use some of her speaking time to pray for the public schools.

Kilgore invited others to bow their heads and join her and apologized if anyone objected. That's when Suffolk Board Chair Tyron Riddick responded by telling her, "I apologize, we can't do that."

Kilgore asked why she couldn't pray and clarified her intentions, according to The Christian Post.

"I like to pray for our students in our school," she said, with Riddick telling the resident to return to her intended topic. "That's not what you signed up to do, ma'am," he said.

But Kilgore wasn't deterred.

"That is my topic, sir," she added, with Riddick again stating prayer wasn't permitted at the time. At that point, Kilgore further questioned why invocations wouldn't be allowed.

"To pray for our schools is not permitted?" she asked, to which Riddick again affirmed prayer wouldn't be allowed. Kilgore encouraged others in the room to join her in prayer after the meeting concluded, stating the "only way that we're going to come together is through God and our faith."
