London attack draws prayers

Notes: "Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby and other church leaders have offered prayers for those affected by the March 22 [2017] attack in Westminster, which left four people dead and many injured. The attacker mowed down pedestrians with his car on Westminster Bridge, then rushed at the gates in front of the Houses of Parliament, stabbing a plainclothes policeman before he was shot by armed officers". 'The Church of England issued a Collect for Peace led by Archbishop of York John Sentamu in a video. Pope Francis and General Bishop Angaelos of the Coptic Orthodox Church in the U.K. sent prayers and messages of solidarity".
