Subject:  National Day of Prayer in response to recent violence
           – Sept. 9th

 
      Bishop Thompson along with the Bishops across the United States has called together a  National Day of Prayer on Sept 9th in response to the recent acts of violence experienced throughout our country.   This National Day of prayer, on the feast of St. Peter Claver, is our way of helping nurture open, honest and civil dialogue in our communities.
Bishop Thompson and Fr. Jason Gries are asking us to stand unified with our brothers and    sisters in Christ by coming together in prayer on  Friday,  September 9th.  Join Holy Redeemer and the Catholic Diocese of Evansville by participating:
 
Mass to Promote Unity
Friday, September 9th, Noon.
at The Cathedral (St. Bens)

 
ALSO: At Holy Redeemer the Church Bells will be rung at 2pm (CST) as a sign of solidarity to mark the National Day of Prayer.  At that time we ask everyone to join in praying the following prayer:

"Some of you said: this system can no longer be endured. We must change it; we must put human dignity again at the center and on that pillar build the alternative social structures we need. It must be done with courage, but also with intelligence, with tenacity but without fanaticism, with passion but without violence. And among us all, addressing the conflicts without being trapped in them, always seeking to resolve the tensions to reach a higher plane of unity, peace and justice." 
-- Pope Francis, 10/28/14
