As we witness the second mass shooting in less than a month in our country, I invite you to join me for Mass this coming Tuesday, May 31 at 6:30 pm at St. John of the Cross. This Mass will be a joint Mass for both St. John of the Cross and Ss. Robert & William. We will include a ritual to remember the victims of the Buffalo and Uvalde shootings, asking the Lord to receive their souls into His heavenly paradise. After Mass I will lead a Rosary for the spiritual and emotional health of all people. We will ask the Blessed Mother's intercession for unity and peace so TOGETHER we may end this sort of senseless tragedy in our country.
May 31 is a Marian Feast Day, the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin, so it is perfect day to come together. The only way to end this sort of thing is to pray for the intercession of the Blessed Mother to open hearts, minds and souls to embrace a Culture of Life. I hope you can join us!
Peace,
Fr. John
