CLEVELAND (AP) -- Hundreds have come together to pray and sing on a walk to the home in Cleveland where police say a suspected serial killer lived among the remains of 11 women.

Those holding candles and walking Sunday night from a church service to Anthony Sowell's house included relatives of some of the seven women who have been identified. Rev. Larry Harris, the pastor of Mount Olive Baptist Church, said the victims' lives were not lived in vain and that their deaths have brought the community together.

A group of ministers from the Mount Pleasant neighborhood is organizing a benefit concert for the families for later this month.

Sowell has been charged with five counts of murder.
