Dear Friends,
We are deeply saddened to witness devastation by the earthquake in Turkey and Syria with huge loss of precious lives. This is the deadliest and most powerful recorded earthquake to hit Turkey in decades.
Our prayers are with the affected people. We extend our heartfelt condolences for the deceased. May their souls rest in eternal peace!
As Luton’s diverse faith communities, we also extend our solidarity to you and Turkish community in Luton. We know a huge coordination is happening at the Local Turkish Cultural Centre & Mosque for clothes and other necessities and donations.
We give thanks for the aid that is already being given and for the promises of help that have been made by many nations. We also give thanks for all the aid workers and rescue efforts. We pray that the God of time and space help those trapped in collapsed buildings be found, and comfort those who have lost loved ones.
We join with the rest of the world in helping and supporting the people of Turkey move towards a future that will overshadow the experiences of today.
