Hills Adventist College chaplain Pastor Jess Laws said, “It was such a blessing to be able to pray

together for the greater city of Sydney as well as, on our table, to pray for our school community. We continue to pray for God’s blessing over our staff and students and their families, for healing and strength, and that every single person who is connected to, or comes in contact with, Adventist Education feels loved, because He first loved us. Education director David Hobson added, “Praying together over our city was an incredible experience, we were inspired to choose peace over violence, faith over despair, hope over fear and service over resignation.”
