THE parents of missing
Madeleine McCann were remembered by the
Archbishop of York
as he asked people to reflect on the “suffering in our world” in his
Christmas sermon.
John Sentamu also included the family of chef Claudia Lawrence during
his speech at York Minster.
The victims of suicide bombings, the “downtrodden” of Zimbabwe, the
armed forces and people affected by the economic downturn were all
referred to in his sermon.
The Archbishop referred to Psalm 98 in which “the entire world of
creation is summoned to sing, play and dance the new song to the Lord”.
He said: “This new song is a universal song, not the property of some
exclusive part of our world.
And since the entire world is invited to sing this new song, singers of
this new song acknowledge the ever-adorable God.”
Four-year-old Madeleine vanished from her parents’ holiday
apartment
in the Portuguese resort of
Praia da Luz on May 3 2007.
Her father doctor father
Gerry and Liverpool-born GP mother
Kate
are demanding a full case review into the little girl’s disappearance.
Thousands of people across the globe have signed a petition supporting
their demands. |
