A man fatally shot in Berkeley Saturday morning was a divinity school student.
BERKELEY — A Berkeley religious school continued to grieve for one of its students who was killed Saturday morning in a shooting that left three other men wounded.
“His goal in pursuing a Master of Divinity was to serve God and his community in San Lorenzo and the greater Bay Area,” the post reads. “He also had a commitment to address climate change, which threatens the Pacific Islands through extreme weather and sea level rise, from a theological perspective.”
School president Rev. David Vasquez-Levy said in the post that “Eli embodied everything our PSR family holds dear. He was a person of deep personal faith and was a leader and mentor in his community with a desire to create a world where all can thrive. He had much more to give before he was taken from us. Today and in the days to come, our prayers go out to Eli Mata’afa’s family — no parent should suffer the loss of a child, and certainly not to gun violence.
