We are shocked and deeply saddened to learn about the tragic circumstances in Southport which robbed the innocent lives of three young victims, girls – Alice Dasilva Aguiar, nine, Bebe King, six, and Elsie Dot Stancombe. There were two adults and eight other children wounded in this vicious attack, making it a total ten atempted murders by a 17 year old youth weilding a curved blade kitchen knife.
Our deepest sympathies, love, and prayers goes out to the parents and families of the three girls and for all who were grieviously injured. We will continue to hold VIGIL for them throughout the month of August. Anyone with this link who wishes to leave prayers or heartfelt words are invited use the COMMENTS SECTION below.

On Moday 5th August 2024 PEACEMAKERS Patrols leader Reverend Dr Dawnecia Palmer and other Patrol members are expected to meet outside City Hall on College Green at 3pm to pray prayers of peace, for healing and redemption for the city, in light of the disruptive breakout of violence both on the Green and at Castle Park over the weekend of 3rd/4th August, during protest demonstration held in these two places, as well as across the UK.
PEACEMAKERS believe prayers can and does make a diffrence – and to quote its Commissioner – ‘if even to create a dent.‘ She Invites anyone who believes in prayer, believes that prayer can make a ‘good’ difference, wishes to see an end to violence in our city, and long for safety on our streets and home, to come along to pray.
MONDAY, 5TH AUGUST, 3PM, 2024 PRAY FOR PEACE AND SAFETY FOR ALL outside CITY HALL, ON COLLEGE GREEN, BRISTOL.

OUR PARTNERS
My heart goes out to the families and loved ones of those little girls and all the other victims affected by this tragedy.
May God rest their souls in eternal peace and comfort their loved ones at this most painful time.
This is unimaginable and sadly, no matter how frequently we keep witnessing such senseless violence, each time is heartbreaking and devastating. It should never be normalised, so we need to pray and believe for change. From all walks of life in a united prayer and plea, for God heal our Nation and change the hearts of our youth. Draw them back to Himself. The future needs them.
Dear God, come help us and don’t delay. We are at our wits end, and cannot fix this world without You. Lord in your mercy, hear our cry.
In the precious Mighty Name of Jesus, Amen.
