stand in solidarity with the local Muslim community, following a terrorist attack on a Quebec City mosque over the weekend. <\/p>\n<p>The shooting, carried out during evening prayers at Centre Culturel Islamique de Qu\u00e9bec on Sunday, left six dead and 19 wounded, leading faith communities across the country to stand up in solidarity with their Muslim brothers and sisters.<\/p>\n<p>The community vigil, hosted by Aurora United Church, St. Andrew\u2019s Presbyterian Church, and Trinity Anglican Church, with participation from an Aurora Imam and the Newmarket Islamic Centre, will take place at the Aurora Cultural Centre on February 4, from 1.30 \u2013 3 p.m. <\/p>\n<p>Other faith communities were expected to confirm their participation in Saturday\u2019s vigil as The Auroran went to press.<\/p>\n<p>The Newmarket Islamic Centre, which serves the communities of both Newmarket and Aurora, are also planning a vigil Friday night at Riverwalk Commons, starting at 6.30 p.m. <\/p>\n<a
