This commitment is reflected on our campus in front of our parish office with the presence of our peace pole that proclaims, “May peace prevail on Includes young person’s chosen saint name. Earth” in four different languages. Our regular weekly prayer for peace at the peace pole hosted by the social justice committee is not currently being held due to the pandemic, but our valuing of active peacemaking has not changed. We continue to be a parish family inspired by the witness of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, and by the wise words of Pope Paul VI: “If you want peace, work for justice.” The past months of uncertainty and unrest may bring up with members of our Come, Holy Spirit, community many emotions: fear, anger, confusion, and more. We trust that the God of all consolation is always present, inviting us to listen for his voice of love, peace, fill the hearts of mercy, justice, and truth. Especially in this moment, God’s call to open wide our your faithful & hearts and be a prayerful, justice-seeking people of peace is one of each of us to hear to kindle in them the answer. In an April 20 statement after the announcement of the Chauvin verdict, Archbishop Bernard Hebda said, “May the many reminders of the Lord’s loving fire of Your love. closeness even in challenging times inspire us to treat each other with unfailing respect, to work non-violently for the common good and to be instruments of reconciliation.” To learn more about St. Tim’s justice and peace ministry, contact Rhonda in the parish office or email sttimothychurch@churchofsttimothycom.
