Open Wide Our Hearts:
The Enduring Call to Love
A pastoral letter against racism was issued by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops in November, 2018. In 1 John 3:1 we read, "See what love the Father has bestowed on us that we may be called the children of God. Yet so we are." The document defines racism as when a person holds that his or her own race or ethnicity is superior, and therefore judges persons of other races or ethnicities as inferior and unworthy of equal regard....Racists acts are sinful because they violate justice ...."
You are invited to take some time to read and pray with this pastoral letter, especially in this time of racial tensions in our country. To download the document, please click HERE.

FROM POPE FRANCIS
June 3, 2020 Weekly Audience at the VaticanDear brothers and sisters in the United States,
I have witnessed with great concern the disturbing social unrest in your nation in these past days, following the tragic death of Mr. George Floyd. My friends, we cannot tolerate or turn a blind eye to racism and exclusion in any form and yet claim to defend the sacredness of every human life. At the same time, we have to recognize that “the violence of recent nights is self-destructive and self-defeating. Nothing is gained by violence and so much is lost.”
Today I join the Church in Saint Paul and Minneapolis, and in the entire United States, in praying for the repose of the soul of George Floyd and of all those others who have lost their lives as a result of the sin of racism. Let us pray for the consolation of their grieving families and friends and let us implore the national reconciliation and peace forwhich we yearn.
May Our Lady of Guadalupe, Mother of America, intercede for all those who work for peace and justice in your land and throughout the world. May God bless all of you and your families.
