New York, NY - Sept. 28, 2025  -  "The Orthodox Union joins with our dear friends in the Mormon community and with all Americans in mourning the victims of the senseless and horrifying attack on the Church of Latter-Day Saints in Grand Blanc, Michigan.

Today’s attacker did not satisfy his hatred with the intentional murder of those engaged in worship; he set the entire house of prayer ablaze. It is devastating to see yet another outburst of violent hatred against faith and its practitioners, precisely as so many in our blessed country are turning to focus more on G-D, prayer, love for each other, and our shared religious and moral values.

 
Our hearts have again been broken but our resolve is even stronger to stand together with all Americans against hate."
