On September 11, we pause to remember the lives forever changed by the events of 9/11. We remember those who lost their lives, the families and loved ones who continue to carry their loss, and the first responders and countless others who showed extraordinary courage and compassion.

As a Catholic community, we pray for peace, healing, and strength. May we never forget the preciousness of every life, the importance of standing together in times of hardship, and our call to love and care for one another.
