My people will live in a peaceful habitation, in safe dwellings, and in quiet resting places.

Isaiah 32:18 World English Bible

Reflection

Gathering to remember shared grief or honour sacred history requires both courage and quiet security. When Christian and Jewish communities assemble in local municipal centres, their visible solidarity reflects a commitment to mutual respect and neighbourly peace. Safety at these solemn gatherings allows participants to focus on healing and unity without fear. Ask for divine protection over every attendee and leader, that peace will guard these events and foster enduring trust.

Prayer

Pray for the memorial events taking place in our cities, uniting Christians and Jews, and for peace and safety during these gatherings.
