Our thoughts and prayers are with the family whose baby was killed and those whose loved ones were injured when a man slammed his vehicle into pedestrians at a light railway stop in Jerusalem on Wednesday. We mourn over this senseless loss of life and the injuries sustained, and condemn the violent act that also led to the death of the perpetrator. We pray for God’s hand of comfort on all who are grieving, and that the Spirit of peace will fall fresh on the land.
