The view from a mass and vigil at St. Mary the Virgin South Hill Church in Vancouver on Sunday, April 27, 2025, hours after a car rammed into a Filipino street festival killing at least 11 people.


I’m at the mass and vigil at St. Mary the Virgin South Hill Church in Vancouver, which is overflowing with community members gathering to mourn those who died in Saturday’s attack.

The congregation is quiet and still as a person addresses the crowd in prayer. Lots of people sniffling, with many visibly emotional.
