Statement from Churches Together in Greater Bristol regarding the Manchester Synagogue Attack

The Churches Together in Greater Bristol are deeply saddened to hear about the awful attack at the Manchester Synagogue, on people marking the holiest day of their calendar. 

This is a time for all people, whatever their religion or lack of it, to stand united in supporting the victims and opposing violence of all kinds.  

Our thoughts and prayers are especially with the Jewish community - in Manchester, here in Bristol, and throughout the UK, for their comfort and their safety at this time.
