ATTACK AS EVIDENCE OF THE EVIL
THAT STILL EXISTS IN THE WORLD.
THEY SPOKE TO SOME PRIESTS FROM
SRI LANKA SAYING THAT ATTACK
WILL NOT SHAKE THEIR FAITH.
THERE IS A RESILIENCE, A
HOPE, A CONVICTION THAT THIS
WILL NOT EXTINGUISH OUR FAITH.
THEY ARE THE ONES THAT WILL
GIVE US HOPE.
THE ONES THAT WILL INTERIORIZE
THE MESSAGE OF EASTER.
THE VICTIMS WERE IN HIS
PRAYER.

Reporter: JULIA LIVES IN
TOMPKINSVILLE.
SHE STARTED THIS DAY WITH THE
SHOCK AND SADNESS OF LEARNING
ABOUT TERROR IN HER NATIVE
LAND.
AFTER ARRIVING AT THIS
RESTAURANT OWNED BY HER FATHER,
SHE FOUND SHE COULDN'T GET
THROUGH ON HER USUAL WAYS OF
COMMUNICATING WITH FAMILY
THERE.
ALL THE SOCIAL MEDIAS ARE
BANNED RIGHT NOW.
IT'S KIND OF HARD TO CONTACT
ANY OF OUR FAMILY MEMBERS.
WHO DO YOU HAVE THERE?
MY WHOLE FAMILY.
MY GRANDMA, MY COUSINS,
BROTHERS.
I KNOW MY FAMILY IS FINE, BUT
WE WERE DEVASTATED WITH WHAT'S
HAPPENING.
STATEN ISLAND BECAME POPULAR
WITH THOUSANDS FLEEING THE
CIVIL WAR.
IN STATEN ISLAND, THE
NEIGHBORHOOD IS THE DIVERSE
CONGREGATION OF THE ROMAN
CATHOLIC CHURCH.
MY HEART GOES OUT TO THEM.
I FEEL AT A TIME LIKE THIS, IT
IS VERY NICE TO SEE OUR
COMMUNITY COME TOGETHER IN
PRAYER AND ALSO IN SUPPORT.
PEOPLE ARE PRAYING, HOPING
MANY WILL GET EXTRA ATTENTION
IN TERMS OF SECURITY.
THE LOCAL POLICE IS VERY
RESPONSIVE TO OUR NEEDS.
WE FEEL AND SEE THEIR PRESENCE.
OF COURSE, OUR LADY IS
PROTECTING US.
THESE OFFICERS ARE WATCHING
OVER THE SRI LANKA ART.
STANDING GUARD EVEN WHEN THE
MUSEUM IS CLOSED.
