I wonder if they were shot in a gun free zone.
Please ping your lists. Prayers needed for these priests.
In ancient ROME, people who robbed temples were thrown to the wild beasts in the arena.
Prayer Ping for these priests.
This is so horrible. I will pray.
This is heartbreaking. What kind of person breaks into a rectory and kills, and/or tries to kill, 2 priests? The churches give away money to those in need. This was so totally unnecessary.
Prayers sent for these fine priests and their families.
Praying. The FSSP trains good and holy priests.
Prayers offered.
Lord Jesus Christ, rest the soul of Thy martyr Father Kenneth with the angels and saints. Heal Father Joseph Thy servant from his injuries and give him a long life, Lord.
May the meek inherit the world, and may the wicked repent.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.

“People are stunned and deeply saddened, after hearing of the violent, deadly attack at Mother of Mercy Mission”
I am furious. Does that make me a bad person?
I want the guilty parties punished, quickly and severely. Does that make me a right-wing extremist?
Thy will be done, Lord. Have mercy on us, even though we don’t deserve it.
Praying for the repose of Fr. Walker’s soul, the recovery of Fr. Terra, and for God’s mercy on everyone involved. Also praying for the repentance and conversion of the wicked soul that murdered Fr. Walker. I suspect that Fr. Walker is also praying for him at this very moment from Heaven.
Praying for those victims, their families and other loved ones, and for all of us.
