Sir, - In your newspaper you have sadly had to report on so many tragic stories related to the drug crisis. I am happy to say in the midst of so much despair people from all walks of life are coming together to give each other hope.
An afternoon of prayer will be held in St Andrew's Church, Westland Row on Saturday, March 20th at 12 noon for all victims of drug abuse, which of course includes all of society. Everyone is welcome. We will also be supporting in prayer all those who make selfless efforts to combat the problem.
I think it is important to keep in mind the strength of communities where drugs have taken root. Community spirit and mutual support are still very much alive in Dublin. - Yours, etc., Adrian Freeney,
Lavarna, Shankill, Co Dublin.
