Interfaith Service of Witness Including an address by Kathryn Heckman of the HSC
Interfaith Service of Witness – Saint Andrews United Church, Halifax
“All Nova Scotians share a great wound in the wake of terrible violence. Eight leaders from different faiths, including Premier McNeil, come together in this service to give witness to our pain, our anger, and our grief but also to our strength, our resilience, and our spirit. Each leader draws upon his or her tradition for words of healing and hope.”
