California bishop posts a statement about Las Vegas mass shooting

Posted Oct 3, 2017

[Diocese of California] With heavy hearts, the Diocese of California is praying for the many victims of last night’s tragic mass shooting in Las Vegas. May we as a nation set aside our differences at this dark hour to comfort all those who mourn. May we also find the resolve to end, once and for all, the senseless epidemic of gun violence ravaging our country.

“Lord, make us instruments of your peace. Where there is hatred, let us sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, union; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy.” – St. Francis of Assisi

The Rt. Rev. Marc Andrus

Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of California
