Here are the victims whose identities have been confirmed by ABC News:

Eight members of the extended Holcombe family were among the 26 dead.

Bryan Holcombe, an associate pastor for the church, was killed in the gunfire, his parents and Claryce Joe Holcombe told ABC News.

Karla Holcombe, Bryan Holcombe’s wife of about four decades, was killed, as well as Bryan and Karla Holcombe’s son, Marc Daniel Holcombe, 36.

Marc Daniel’s 1-year-old daughter, Noah Holcombe, was also killed.

Crystal Holcombe, the wife of John Holcombe, who is the son of Bryan and Karla, also died. Crystal Holcombe was pregnant, and three of her children, Emily, Megan and Greg, died as well.

Crystal Holcombe is survived by her husband and two of her children.

Haley Krueger, 16, died in the shooting, according to her mother.

Lulu White died in the shooting, according to her sister.

Tara Elyse McNulty was killed in the shooting, according to her close friend, who posted on Facebook about her death.

"My best friend, my souls sister... I love you so much. My heart is broken," she wrote.

Joann Ward and her two daughters, Brooke Ward and Emily Garza, are among the dead, Joann Ward's sister-in-law, Leslie, told ABC News.

Joann Ward is survived by her husband, Chris, and 5-year-old son Ryland, who was shot several times and is in the hospital today, family said.

Richard Rodriguez and his wife, Therese Rodriguez, were among the deceased, according to Regina Rodriguez, Richard Rodriguez's daughter.

Annabelle Pomeroy, 14, was one of the individuals slain at the house of worship, according to her father, Frank Pomeroy, who is a pastor at the church.

Annabelle “was one very beautiful, special child,” Pomeroy told ABC News by phone.

Pomeroy said he was in Oklahoma during the shooting, a rare weekend that he wasn't at the church.

The pastor's wife, Sherry Pomeroy, said at this morning's news conference, "We lost more than Annabelle yesterday, and one thing that gives me a sliver of encouragement is the fact that Belle was surrounded yesterday by her church family that she loved fiercely."

The church family was very close, Sherry Pomeroy said.

"We ate together, we laughed together, we cried together, and we worshiped together. Now most of our church family is gone. Our building is probably beyond repair," she said. "As senseless as this tragedy was our sweet Belle would not have been able to deal with losing so much family yesterday. Please don’t forget Sutherland Springs."

AMINA MOLLEL: WAZAZI MSIWAFICHE WATOTO WENYE ULEMAVU NDANI

mbunge wa viti maalumu CCM Amina Mollel akiwa anacheza ngoma ya kimasai pamoja na baadhi ya wamasai waliojitokeza katika sherehe za kupandisha ngazi ya rika kutoka katika rika la kurianga kuingia katika rika la Nyangulo (habari picha na woindeshizza blog )

mbunge akiwa na wananchi waliouthuria katika sherehe hizo

mbunge wa viti maalumu CCM Amina Mollel akiwa anasalimia na moja na mzee aliekuwa rrika la kurianga ambae kwa sasa ameingia katika rika la Nyangulo 

Wazazi hususa ni jamii ya kimasai wametakiwa kuachana na zana ya kuwatenga na kutowapeleka shule watoto wa kike na wale ambao ni walemavu badala yake wawapeleke mashuleni kwani wao ndio viongozi wa baadae

Hayo yamebainishwa na mbunge wa viti maalumu kupitia chama cha mapinduzi (CCM) Amina Mollel wakati alipokuwa akizungumza kama mgeni rasmi katika sherehe za kupandisha ngazi rika kutoka katika rika la kurianga kuingia katika rika la Nyangulo ,sherehe ambazo zilifanyika katika Kijiji cha Oldenderet Kata ya Nduruma mkoani Arusha

Alisema kuwa kunabaadhi ya wazazi wamekuwa wakiwaficha watoto wao kisa ni walemavu jambo ambalo linawakosesha haki zao ikiwemo ya kupata elimu kutokana na kufichwa huko

“kwakweli wazazi wanavyoficha watoto wao hususa ni walemavu wanawanyima haki yao mfano kama mimi ningefichwa leo kweli ndugu zangu ningeweza kuwa kiongozi hivyo napenda kuwasihi wazazi wasiwafiche watoto hawa kwani wakiwapeleka shule kupata elimu itakuwa vizuri kwani pale watakapo maliza shule wanakuja kuwasaidia “alisema Amina

Aidha pia aliwataka wazazi hawa wa jamii ya kimasai na hata wale wa makabila mengine kuacha kuwaozesha watoto wakike mapema kwani watoto hao wakike nao wanahaki ya kupata elimu kwani elimu ni bure ,kuanzia ngazi ya msingi hadi sekondari hivyo ni vyema kama wazazi wakawasimamia watoto hususa ni wakike wakaenda shule

Aliongeza kwa kuwasihihi watoto wa kike kuweka kipaumbele swala la elimu kwani elimu ndio kila kitu katika maisha yao na iwapo watasoma kwa bidii wanaweza kuwa viongozi wakubwa wa serikalini hapo baadae

Alisema kuwa kunabaadhi ya watoto wa kike wamekuwa wanaacha kusoma kisa wanakimbilia maisha kitu ambacho sio kizuri kwani wanaweza kukimbilia maisha yakawapiga hivyo ni muhimu sana kama watasoma kwanza alafu maisha watayapata baadae baada ya kumaliza kusoma na kupata kazi zao nzuri

“napenda kuwasihi ndugu zangu wamasai kuachana na mila za kizamani kama vile ukeketaji na kuozesha watoto wa kike mapema kwani swala hilo sio jema na limepitwa na wakati na napenda kuwataka wananchi wote hususa ni ndugu zangu wamasai kuwafichua wale wote ambao bado wanaendeleza mila za zamani kama vile ukeketaji”Alisisitiza Amina
