On behalf of our respective Churches we welcome the initiative of Belfast City Council, the Trades Union movement and the business community in calling upon citizens to attend a Rally at Belfast City Hall on Friday 2nd August 2002 at 1.00p.m. to express abhorrence of sectarianism and sectarian violence. We encourage all who can to attend the Rally.
