Authorities have declared a day of Total Fire Ban again tomorrow for the whole state of Victoria.

Praying for all who have been touched by this tragedy.

From Archbishop Ric Thorpe: "I am deeply saddened by the appalling act of violence and terrorism that occurred at Bondi Beach this evening. That such a tragedy should strike during Hanukkah, a celebration of light, peace, and hope, is a profound evil that has no place in our society.

Our prayers and thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the entire Jewish community, especially those targeted in this senseless act. To our Jewish brothers and sisters, we stand in unwavering solidarity with you during this time. This was an attack on your community, but it is also an assault on the shared values of harmony and religious freedom that we all hold dear.

We condemn this hatred in the strongest terms and pray for the peace of God to comfort all who are grieving. May we reject division and instead work together to protect the safety and dignity of every person in our nation.

‘The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.’ (John 1:5)"
