🙏Prayers and Spiritual Guidance To End Racism O Lord our God, in your mercy and kindness, no thought of ours is left unnoticed, no desire or concern ignored. You have proven that blessings abound when we fall on our knees in prayer, and so we turn to you in our hour of need.

Here is Pope Francis' homily for Pentecost "[The Holy Spirit] reminds us that first of all we are God's beloved children; all equal, in this respect, and all different.  The Spirit comes to us, in our differences and difficulties, to tell us that we have one Lord-Jesus-and our Father, and that for this reason we are brothers and sisters!...Let us look at the Church with the eyes of the Spirit and not as the world does." - Pope Francis Pope Francis' Pentecost message for ecumenical prayer movement "We ...
