Catholic pupils among dead in bus crash in Switzerland

[lizardley]

At least 28 people, including 22 schoolchildren, were killed last night when a coach bringing Belgian and Dutch tourists back to Belgium from a skiing holiday crashed into the wall of a tunnel in Switzerland near the border with Italy.

The bus, transporting 52 people, mostly children aged about 12, from the towns of Lommel and Heverlee in Belgium’s Dutch-speaking Flanders region, crashed in Valais at 9.15 pm.

Children at St Lambertus school in Heverlee, a suburb of Leuven, were informed about the accident at an assembly before classes this morning. Flowers were laid outside the Catholic school where eight children were unaccounted for.

Praying for everyone killed or injured and their families…

Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.

I am like most of us at CAF, praying for all victims regardless if they are Catholic or not! I hope the OP is just being misunderstood.
