Further stories of faith have emerged from the aftermath of the Easter Sri Lanka church attacks.
The children and teachers of Zion Church’s Sunday School were on their way back to the main service for breakfast when a bomb was detonated.
Among those who lost their lives were 13-year-old Jackson and his Sunday School teacher and aunt, Verlini. His father, Verl, said: ‘My son Jackson and my sister died on the spot. My brother-in-law died a week after the incident in the hospital.’
