My Dear Friends

I just wanted to let you all know how saddened I am about the terrible tragedy occurring over the weekend. Poland has suffered enough throughout its history, and for all of us who love Poland this catastrophe is almost too much to bear.

Being amongst those who gathered around the Presidential Palace, lighting candles and singing hymns, helped me to  experience the power and resilience of the Polish people. The quiet dignity and communal reflection of the people is really inspiring. The Polish people will bear this as they have borne so much in the past.

All those on the plane were in active public service. They were due to take part in a service  of remembrance, peace-building and reconciliation.  This meaning will not be lost and I do believe that in some mysterious, as yet unforeseen way, their work will be realized in future.

I wish all of you a time of peace and quiet in your soul.

Andrew Atter
