CONTROVERSIAL GOSFORD CHURCH WEIGHS IN ON SYDNEY SIEGE

Meanwhile, Gosford’s Anglican Church has also offered a message of support to victims of the Sydney siege.

The parish today added the Twitter hashtag – “i’ll ride with you” – to its public noticeboard.

Father Rod Bower says the sign has had a positive response among the community so far.

The message board is famous for its social commentary.

In October the church sparked debate over the wearing of Muslim headdress.
