Let us pray for the families and friends of the innocents murdered in New York and Sutherland Springs, Texas. Because we are human, we suffer angst, anger, and hopelessness during times like these.

As Dominicans, we seek peace and truth through prayer, reflection, and action. May this reflection bring you closer to peace and truth. This week, we offer up prayer and reflections. If you are moved, uplift your heart and voice with us in prayer and reflection.

A Reflection for You

Today, sit in a silent space and hold sacred the questions of your heart.

Why so much violence?
Why so much anger?
Why so much death?

Where am I in this mystery?
In the face of these tragedies, what is my call to peace and nonviolence?
