Vigil of remembrance

A VIGIL of silent prayer and remembrance will be held on Thursday from 3.30-7.30pm at the Ballarat Anglican Cathedral Church of Christ the King in Lydiard Street South.

The Cathedral will be open for people to light a candle in mourning for those Muslims killed in the violent massacre of worshippers in their mosque last Friday in Christchurch.

This opportunity to quietly express sympathy and support for those grieving and in shock will become part of the Ecumenical, Interfaith prayer service being held at 5.30pm in the Cathedral as part of Harmony Day.
