Praying for Nice

The scene on the Nice promenade yesterday after the terrorist attack

Yet another horrific tragedy hit the country of France. 84 people have been killed in southern France Thursday evening, after a truck reportedly drove into a crowd of people celebrating Bastille Day. Anti-terror police were on the streets as crowds fled the scene of the crash, in a country still tense after a string of devastating attacks. As France and the world follows the Tour de France these weeks, and after hosting a successful Euro 2016 Soccer Tournament, we pray today for the innocent victims,most of whom were watching the fireworks display, let off during the evening of national days, as was the case yesterday evening, Bastille Day in France.
Let us pray for the innocent victims, their families and the entire French nation, struggling with its third major attack in a year and a half.
