Standing for Peace

Standing in solidarity with the victims of the LynnMall terror attack Saturday 11th September, 6.30 pm
This Saturday the 11th of September at 6.30 pm, New Zealanders are invited to light a candle in solidarity with the victims and their families.

Sponsors of this initiative, Dr Tim Pratt, Lead Chaplain at the University of Auckland, and Dr Zain Ali, Professional Teaching Fellow at the University of Auckland, note that, ‘together we stand in support of the ‘golden rule’ that is shared across many cultures and traditions “care for one another”.

Standing for Peace is an initiative for all New Zealanders. Our thoughts are with the victims and their families. We are shocked and heartbroken by the horrific attacks at LynnMall shopping centre on Friday 3rd September 2021.Those who are planning to participate are encouraged to light a candle at home, and if weather permits, stand with their candles, at their front gate.

The NZHerald will be providing coverage of this event. Please share with family and friends!
