“We join our brother bishops to challenge everyone to come together, particularly with those who are from different cultural backgrounds. In this encounter, let us all seek greater understanding amongst God’s people. So many people who historically have been disenfranchised continue to experience sadness and pain, yet they endeavor to persevere and remain people of great faith. We encourage our pastors to encounter and more authentically accompany them, listen to their stories, and learn from them, finding substantive ways to enact systemic change. Such encounters will start to bring about the needed transformation of our understanding of true life, charity, and justice in the United States. Hopefully, then there will be many voices speaking out and seeking healing against the evil of racism in our land.”

I see the witches protesting, the Amish protesting, Anonymous protesting, and I as a Catholic want to join. Injustice has been allowed to continue for too long, we need to do what is right and take a stand. Regardless of what happens Christ is with us all. Christ is for the Witches, the Amish, the LGBTQ+ community, All of Us. For all those marching along, and fighting for an end to police brutality and racism, I pray with and for you. God bless you all and keep the movement going.
