Intro to: "Open Wide Our Hearts," the U.S. Bishops' Pastoral Letter Against Racism
Thursday, June 25, 4:30 – 6:00 pm, with Fr. Sam Nasada, OFM
In November 2018, the Catholic bishops of the United States released a Pastoral Letter Against Racism called, Open Wide Our Hearts. It’s a powerful invitation for all the people of God to “face courageously the vice of racism. . . reach out generously to the victims of this evil, to assist the conversion needed in those who still harbor racism, and to begin to change policies and structures that allow racism to persist.”
Fr. Sam will lead you in a prayerful discussion about this Church teaching. In order to have a fruitful discussion,
please read the letter prior to the meeting
.
This session will serve as an introduction to the document. The goal is to motivate us to pray, listen, and act more to fight the sin of racism in our land.
Registration is required.

On June 5, the Georgetown University Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life hosted
“A Public Dialogue on Racism in Our Streets and Structures: A Test of Faith, A Crisis for Our Nation.”
Nearly 8,000 viewers including Cardinal Peter Turkson from the Vatican joined the dialogue to offer words of solidarity. The Initiative invites you to
