Anglican Communion News Service - Digest News

We are extremely shocked by what has happened in London this morning. There is no excuse for these brutal attacks on civilians and they must be condemned in the strongest possible way.

We pray for those who are struggling to come to terms with the loss of their loved ones and for all those who have been injured - that they may be returned to full health in the shortest possible time.

We commend those in the emergency services who are working right now to restore peace and order and wish them strength to deal with this disaster. We are confident that the British people have the courage and fortitude to deal with this tragedy in the most appropriate way.

There are many South Africans living and working in London and many of us have family and friends in Britain. Our thoughts are with them at this time.
