Dear Friends in Christ –

I received this from Father Kennedy, the Chaplain at Porter Gaud, the school my daughter attends, and I wanted to share it with you.

“[... We] are rooted in the belief that all people are creatures made in the image of God. Each and every one of us - without exception - is a product, recipient, and reflection of Divine love. We are all therefore persons with innate and immeasurable dignity and worth, persons of one human family, whose lives are intricately interwoven with one another.

The acts of white supremacy and violence experienced in the city of Buffalo over the weekend - and all forms of racism and hatred - are anathema to this vision of the human person. Such events fracture the human family and remind its members that things are not as they should be, that we are not as we should be.”

We have work to do!

Best love,
