Three months after a suicide bomber killed almost 100 worshipers at St. Sebastian’s Church in Negombo, Sri Lanka, Cardinal Malcom Ranjith of Colombo presided at the first Mass at the church since the Easter Sunday bomb attack on April 21, 2019.
As mourners buried the remains of Christian worshippers killed by the Easter Sunday suicide bomb attacks in Sri Lanka, hundreds of Muslim refugees fled Negombo on the country’s west coast where communal tensions have flared in recent days.
The little room, like much of Sri Lanka, could not hold any more grief.
At least 207 people were killed and hundreds more injured after a series of blasts shook Sri Lanka on Easter Sunday.
