STATEMENT FOLLOWING ATTACK AT LONDON BRIDGE from the Co-Chairs and Faith Communities Forum Moderators of the Inter Faith Network for the UK

Statement following attack at London Bridge


Our thoughts and prayers are with all affected by the terrorist stabbing attack at London Bridge on Friday afternoon in which two were killed by the attacker and several injured. 
 
We condemn, in the strongest terms, terrorism and the extremist ideologies that underpin it and we call on all to stand together and speak out in the strongest terms against them.
 
With each terrorist attack in recent years, there has been horror and anger at the atrocity; condemnation; prayers and sympathies for those killed or injured; admiration for courage and resilience displayed; and a call to ‘stand together’.  And where terrorists or extremists have drawn selectively on religious writings and history, there has been disavowal by faith communities of this evil twisting of elements of their traditions into distorted and dangerous forms to justify the unjustifiable.  
 
It is a matter of profound sadness and concern that voices of faith communities have to be heard again and again in the context of responses to terrorist attacks and also hate crime. There are so many important social justice issues on which their voices need to be heard as well as broader issues such about how we live together well as people of different faiths and beliefs in the UK. 
 
Yet we cannot remain silent in the face of terrible actions, with their impacts both on those directly affected and on our society more generally. We end, as we began, with thoughts and prayers for those killed, injured, bereaved and otherwise affected by the attack on Friday and a call to all to come together to stand together in the face of terrorism and to speak out in the strongest terms against it and against the extremist ideologies that underpin it.
  The Inter Faith Network Co-Chairs and Faith Communities Forum Moderators

Interfaith Panel Discussion on ‘Prayer -How do you do it?’ Shirley House Interfaith Centre, Wednesday 16th Ocotber 7.30pm

Bring your questions about prayer to a panel of experienced interfaith representatives. Do you wonder whether prayer is for you? What do we mean by prayer? Is it important? Why? What is it for? Do we use set words? Must we kneel ? What is the difference between prayer in different faiths? Can you pray if you are not sure if God exists?

You may be surprised by the similarities and the differences between the answers from different faith traditions.

We welcome everybody who would like to come

at Shirley House, 31 Psalter Lane, Sheffield S11 8YL (218 bus leaves the Interchange at 19.15)

Refreshments are always included.
