Statement on Racism from Bishop Barres

On behalf of the faithful of the Diocese of Rockville Centre, I express my heartfelt prayers and condolences to the Floyd family.  We pray for peace on the streets of our cities.  We pray that peace, charity and justice may animate non-violent protests.  We pray for our public servants, our police, our first responders and their families.  We pray for the witness of our Church and the ecumenical and interfaith witness we have with our brothers and sisters of different faiths.
