I’m deeply shocked to read about the bomb attacks on hotels and churches in Sri Lanka – during Easter.

My heart, thoughts, and prayers go out to the victims, and their loved ones during this difficult time of bereavement and adjustment.

The thoughts of promising lives being cruelly put to an end grip my heart and sadden me deeply.

My prayer goes up for those who survive the victims.

May they find strengths to cope with the tragedy, and resilience to press on and courage and wisdom to rebuild their lives and futures.

I pray that lives lost in such a heinous tragedy will be a turning point for the community and the world at large:

That at all levels of society, leaders will enforce justice, and ensure that such a crime will never happen again;

That humanity will be inspired to stand together and help protect every single person regardless of his/her creed, culture, colour, custom and country of origin; and

That we will never stand by and do nothing against the forces of evil.

May we never take the peace around us for granted.

May we stay united, vigilant and do our part to help look out for the world around us, and to keep it safe and secure for all our children and children’s children.

My prayer and hope is that this violent crime will not cause any negative reactions, but that it will start a new day of love, peace, kindness and compassion.
