Group of brothers prays before first day of school in Jacksonville

Video shows a group of brothers praying before the first day of school in Jacksonville.

Students returned to school in Duval and Columbia counties on Monday.

A Jacksonville mom sent Action News Jax a video of what she called a brothers prayer circle.

She said the oldest brother is a freshman at Ed White High School, where he's a varsity football player.

"Since they took prayer out of the schools, they pray before going to school," the mom said.

His younger brothers go to SOS Academy, Hyde Park Elementary and Hyde Grove Elementary, she said.
