How did you come up with the idea of this interreligious ceremony for peace in Ukraine?
Mordechai SULTAN, Rabbi of Thionville “A few days ago, on the initiative of the Chief Rabbi of Metz and Moselle, Bruno Fiszon and with the support of the municipality of Messina, an interreligious ceremony for peace in Ukraine was organized at the Cloître des Récollets. This is how I came up with the idea of contacting my friends from other religions (Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox and Muslims) and asking them to meet for this noble cause, that of peace and support for the oppressed. I thank them most sincerely for having immediately accepted the invitation. I would also like to thank the mayor, Mr Pierre Cuny, for being associated with this ceremony and for making the multifunctional space of Veymerange available to us. The evening will begin at 8 p.m. and will see different speeches follow one another. But we will be more in a logic of prayers than speeches. We will not be like on a TV set commenting on the news, some do it much better than us. We just want to find ourselves in a moment of brotherhood and union. »
