From Bishop John Chapman on todays events in Ottawa Like all Canadians, we are following todays news from Parliament Hill—just blocks from our Synod office—with shock and trepidation. In this moment of huge uncertainty, building lockdowns, evacuated streets, barricaded shopping malls, and minute-by-minute updates, we draw strength and courage from our faith and pray that this event will soon be over. We trust in the professionalism of our police and armed forces. We pray for the soul of the soldier who lost his life at the outset of todays incident. We have faith in the resilience of those charged with countering acts of violence in our land. Please pray for all those at the centre of this situation and for a return to calm in our homes, hearts and streets. † John The Rt. Rev. John H. Chapman Bishop of Ottawa Anglican Diocese of Ottawa
