London: Mass and prayer vigil for crew of highjacked ship

Source: Stella Maris

A special Mass and prayer vigil to mark the one-year anniversary of the hijacking of the Galaxy Leader will take place in London on Tuesday, 19th November.

On this day last year, Houthi rebels seized the car carrier in the Red Sea, taking its 25 crew members hostage. Their whereabouts is not publicly known.

Stella Maris will be holding this service to stand in solidarity with the seafarers from the Galaxy Leader and their families, offering comfort and support as they continue to endure captivity. We will also pray for all seafarers who have faced threats and attacks while carrying out their vital work, as well as for peace and stability in the region.

This is an opportunity for the community to come together in reflection and prayer, remembering those who remain in danger and praying for their safe release.

The Mass and prayer vigil will take place on 19 November, 7pm in the Church of St Anselm and St Cecilia, Kingsway, London WC2A 3JA
