“Light will win – a gathering of unity and remembrance”.
This is the theme for today’s National Day of Mourning for the 15 innocent victims of the Bondi Beach terrorist attack.
On behalf of my Mayo community, deepest sympathies to the families, friends and loved ones of the victims.
What should have been a celebration of light, became one of Australia’s darkest days.
My condolences also to Australia’s Jewish Community.
As a symbol of remembrance, mourning and solidarity, we’re encouraged to leave a candle at the doorstep or window.
At 7.01pm AEDT, you may wish to observe a minute of silence.
Our Australian Jewish community is also asking that we all undertake a Mitzvah – and act of kindness, compassion and moral responsibility to honour the 15 lives lost.
Let today be one of kindness, unity and remembrance.
