“At a time when young hearts were turned toward the Lord in prayer, violence entered the sanctuary, leaving wounds, fear, and deep sorrow. Let us lift every child, teacher, and family of Annunciation Catholic Church and School to our Father, especially those who were killed and those injured, asking Christ the Divine Physician to bring healing to all of them. We entrust the school and parish community to the maternal intercession of Our Lady of Sorrows, who stood faithfully by the cross of Her Son and knows the anguish of a grieving heart...” --Archbishop Samuel Aquila of Denver. https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/266197/catholic-community-unites-in-prayer-after-shooting-at-minneapolis-school-mass
