The following statement was released by the United States Northeast Area Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints:
“The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints stands with all people of faith who face violence because of their beliefs. Having experienced a similar attack in nearby Grand Blanc, Church members express their love, support, and deep concern for all who are affected by today’s act of violence at a synagogue in West Bloomfield. Houses of worship should be sanctuaries of peace, prayer, and community. We pray for healing, comfort, and peace for all who are suffering.”
