Tags: Currents Faith

New York’s Cardinal Timothy Dolan and Brooklyn’s Bishop Robert Brennan met with survivors of the attack that prompted the terror in the Holy Land.

The “commission of religious leaders” held the meeting last week and heard the survivors’ story.

On Oct. 7, the grandmother and her two 15-year-old granddaughters hid in a safe room for more than 30 hours while terrorists tried to get inside.

The grandmother’s home was ultimately destroyed, leaving the family displaced. 

At the end of the meeting, the faith leaders laid their hands on the survivors, thanking God for protecting the women during the attack.
