Archbishop of Westminster Sends Holocaust Message of Remembrance
The Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O’Connor has sent a message of remembrance to the organisers of Holocaust Memorial Day.
As the Memorial Day falls on Friday – which has a number of implications for certain faiths – national events will be taking place up and down the country to remember the victims of the Holocaust on Jan. 26th ahead of Holocaust Memorial Day on 27th January. This year’s theme is: ‘One Person Can Make a Difference’.
In his message, Cardinal Murphy-O’Connor said: “History's greatest evil remains barely graspable by the human mind. But I glimpsed something of it at a visit once to Auschwitz, where a room contained suitcases stamped with the initials of those who were taken to the gas chamber.
