Glasgow archbishop’s message of support for Paris

Archbishop Tartaglia sends support to Paris via French cardinal

Archbishop Philip Tartaglia of Glasgow, president of the Bishops’ Conference of Scotland, has sent a message of support to Cardinal Vingt-Trois, the Archbishop of Paris, expressing his ‘sadness at the horrific events which unfolded in Paris last night,’ during which more than 120 people died. Archbishop Tartaglia’s message also promises to ‘join with you in prayer, commending to God’s love and mercy all those who were killed, injured, and bereaved’ in Friday’s attacks by gunmen and bombings in the French capital after which the president of France closed the country’s borders.
