To Regnum Christi members of all vocations in the North American Territory
Dear fathers, brothers, Lay Consecrated Men, Consecrated Women, and lay members,
We greet you with heavy hearts this morning following last night’s tragic shooting in Butler County, Pennsylvania. However, we are reminded of our Lord’s words, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid” (John 14:27).
As Regnum Christi members, we unite in prayer with the whole Church for the recovery of former President Trump and for those who were killed or injured. We are reminded of the great opportunity and calling we have to bring the Gospel message to our nation. Let us ask Our Lord for peace in this country and the ability to see each other as our brothers and sisters in him.
Mary, Queen of Peace, pray for us.
Yours in Christ,
The Territorial Directive College of Regnum Christi
North American Territory
