With sadness and concern, we have learned of the violent attack at Nanaksar Gurdwara in Edmonton, where two members of the Sikh community were injured while gathered in worship and prayer. We hold the victims, their loved ones, and the entire Sikh community in our prayers as they seek healing and comfort in the days ahead.

Places of worship are sacred spaces. They are meant to be places of refuge, peace, and belonging, where people gather to pray, seek spiritual nourishment, and experience community. The vice-president Zora Grewal, reminded us that the temple's doors are open to all, that it is a place for prayer and peace of mind, and that its community seeks to respond not with hatred, but with love.

As followers of Christ, we remain in solidarity with our Sikh siblings and with all who have been shaken by this act of violence. We join in the prayer that such harm will not happen again and reaffirm our shared commitment to communities where every person can worship in safety, dignity, and peace.

May God's healing presence surround those who were injured, bring strength to the Nanaksar Gurdwara community, and inspire all of us to be courageous builders of peace, understanding, and compassionate neighbourliness.

In this personal reflection, Chris Mah Poy expresses deep exhaustion, grief, and frustration over the rise of White nationalism, racism, and other forms of discrimination in Canada.

Our prayers are with the LGBTQ community in Berlin, Germany, as a terrorist drove a van into a Pride festival event last night, and also attacked people with a machete.

One person was killed and at least 29 others injured. The suspect has been identified and is still at large and being sought by police.

An attack on one LGBTQ community is an attack on LGBTQ communities everywhere.

We pray for the victims in Berlin, for their families and for those responding to this tragedy as medics, police and community leaders. We pray also for the police as they search for the person or persons who wreaked this chaos on an event meant to celebrate the community, solidarity and joy of Pride.

Bring your comfort, your justice and your healing, dear God.

In the name of the One who brings peace. Amen.
