Archbishop Leo Joins Interfaith Prayer Walk with Toronto Police

On Thursday, April 11, 2024, Archbishop Leo joined members of the Toronto Police Service and faith leaders in a Prayer Walk through the streets of downtown Toronto. The interfaith initiative took place in every police division throughout the City of Toronto and provides an opportunity to build relationships between the police, community members and faith leaders. The Prayer Walk also demonstrates the importance of ongoing dialogue and collaboration as we collectively tackle issues of common concern.

I am happy to be participating in this interfaith initiative to promote spiritual support, prayer, peace and reconciliation,” said Deputy Chief Lauren Pogue, who joined Toronto Police Chaplain Wendell Gibbs in the 52 Division walk from Yonge & Dundas Square to First Baptist Church.

“Happening across every Division in our city, the Toronto Police is committed to fostering our partnerships with faith leaders to promote our collective commitment to community safety and well-being for all Toronto communities.”
