Worldwide Vigils for Vanunu - Australia
I am really glad to report that we in Australia did participate in the
world wide vigils ....At St John's Church in Sydney a prayer vigil was held
from 12 - 2.00pm attended by parishioners and even the Deputy Mayor of
South Sydney!; while at the same time several members of the Australian
Campaign to Free Vanunu, including the Rev David Smith and Sandy Gray, who
were close friends of Mordechai's during his time in Sydney, held a vigil
outside the Israeli Embassy in the business district of Sydney, where we
attracted a lot of interest and managed to distribute over 200 leaflets in
the space of an hour.
Also this coming Sunday at St John's Darlinghurst, which is the church
where Mordechai became a Christian such a long time ago, again like last
year, both the Morning Service and Community Church in the evening will be
dedicated to Mordechai - with the Rev. David Smith speaking in the morning
and the previous convener of the Australian Campaign, the Rev. Tom
Henderson-Brooks giving the address in the evening with me leading the
evening service and prayers.
We may be small out here, but we're hanging in there and we're not giving up!!
Peace and Blessings to all of you,
Irma Trnka
