It's been one year since the terror attacks on Israel, where approximately 1,200 people were killed. About 100 hostages remain in Gaza.

The Seabreeze Jewish Center in Coney Island held a candlelight vigil and prayer ceremony to send a message of peace and reflect on the somber day.

"Today is a day that every single one of us has to make a resolution of 'how I can become a better person?'" said Rabbi Moishe Winner, of the Sea Breeze Jewish Center. "If I individually can share a little bit more light to the dark world and together collectively, we can make the world a more lit place."

News 12’s Daniella Rodriguez was at Monday night’s ceremony and spoke with the congregants about this difficult day.
