On October 6th, many Jewish leaders and activists attended a beautiful Vigil with Christian, Hindu, Muslim and other allies. Resilience and Remembrance was organized by Rev. Majed Shafie, founder of One Free World International, and hosted by Pastor Judith James at the Revival Time Tabernacle in Toronto. The event paid homage to the survivors of the October 7th attack, mourned the loss of lives in Israel from Hamas terrorists who were aided by thousands of Gazan civilians, and demonstrated solidarity with Israel.
Speakers included Solhail Raza, Donna Holbrook, Sheng Zue, Tanya Gaw, Amir Epstein and the Consul General of Israel, Idit Shamir, as well as Rev. Majed Shafi, the keynoter. The speakers representing different communities gave voice to the pain of Jews in Canada who are experiencing dramatic levels of antisemitism, and called out the Islamists, leftists, and antagonists that wish to bring down our society. None of the speakers was subtle in stating the war in Israel with enemies on 7 fronts, is the front line in a war against the West.
