Yesterday, in honor of the 10th Anniversary of 9-11, Fr. Jeff shared this prayer with us. It was found next to the body of a dead child in a concentration camp: "O Lord, remember not only the men and women of good will, but also those of ill will. But do not remember all the suffering they inflicted on us. Remember the fruits we have been brought, thanks to this suffering- our comradeship, our loyalty, our humility, our courage, our generosity, the greatness of heart which has grown out of all this, and when they come to judgment let all the fruits which we have borne be their forgiveness." Let us pray this prayer together and endeavor with all our hearts to mean the words that we speak.
