Billy Graham Rapid Response Team (BG-RRT) chaplains are ministering in Australia to a shocked community in Sydney’s Bondi Beach after a pair of gunmen opened fire on a Hanukkah celebration. At least 15 people were killed Dec. 14, claiming lives from 10 to 87 years old, and 20 are still being treated in the hospital.
Australia-based chaplains deployed to this popular destination to offer emotional and spiritual support to families who lost loved ones, as well as first responders, law enforcement, and anyone else in need of hope during this difficult time.
“While this community is experiencing grief and loss that is unfathomable, our chaplains are there in Bondi Beach to let them know they are not alone—that the hope and peace of God can bring them through these dark days,” said Josh Holland, vice president of BG-RRT Global.
Please pray for all the people who have been touched by this tragedy. Lift up the Sydney community to the Lord, and ask Him to provide His peace that passes all understanding.
