People are showing solidarity and offering help to Muslim communities all over the world after Friday's shooting attacks on two New Zealand mosques that killed at least 49 people.
Churches are opening their doors after mosques were told to close for security issues in the wake of the Christchurch, New Zealand, terrorist attacks. Mosques are receiving messages of solidarity and flowers. A fundraising for the victims is nearing $400,000. And a UK-based national forum for Christian-Muslim engagement is calling on Christians to go along to Friday prayers at their local mosques -- a call the archbishop of Canterbury endorsed.
As always, St Dunstan's Chapel is available for private prayer and reflection throughout the day. pic.twitter.com/8BvUGAjZ0r — Archbishop of Canterbury March 15, 2019 They are holding vigilsMeanwhile, peaceful vigils are already being held in New Zealand and across the UK.A peaceful vigil is taking place outside Sandwell Council House, Oldbury, following the terrorist attack in Christchurch, New Zealand.

Such a thoughtful gesture outside @CMRochdale from a well wisher today 🙏🏽
