Our hearts are full of tears today as we stand together with the Muslim community in sorrow and solidarity in the wake of the horrific news of the mass shooting yesterday at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand. We have no words of comfort to offer. All we can do continue our work to build bridges among faith communities; to stand together for love, not hate; and to work to build a world where everyone is safe and secure in their homes, in their places of worship, and in their communities. We can pray that world will come speedily, but prayers are not enough. Please reach out to your Muslim friends and neighbors today. Extend the hand of friendship. Offer hugs where appropriate. A kind word of comfort. Your presence. Let us all stand together as one unified community of faith and love.
