for Justice, Mercy, and Peace


Pray in solidarity with all those who are suffering - crying out for justice, mercy, and peace.

Together we will pray for our nation as we approach the midterm elections.

Starting on Friday, September 11, our Vigil for Justice, Mercy, and Peace will take on a special intention in praying for our upcoming midterm elections here in the United States. Join us in praying for our country this election season, that we may use our voice and vote to feed the hungry, welcome the stranger, liberate the oppressed, protect our democracy, and love our neighbors as Christ loves us.

Come be rooted in prayer that inspires action. Action that loves our neighbors as ourselves.

This vigil is every Friday at 12:15 pm CT / 11:15 am MT, online via Zoom, with readings, silence, music, and prayer.

Led by Abby Z. Ybay, Obl/OSB, Dean of Community Life. Register now.
