“On May 3rd 2020, the Good Shepherd Sunday, Pope Francis in his homily gave us the motivation to spend a day of Prayer and Fasting (may 14th was originally intended) to implore God’s mercy and forgiveness, his healing and consoling touch to the whole wounded world in the context of CORONA virus.
This invitation by the Pope is to join with all people of good will, especially PEOPLE OF DIFFERENT FAITHS. As students & teachers, let us bring our institutions together in prayer – for peace and healing. Knowing the seriousness of our diseased context, let us as believers be moved with love and invite our Christian, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, Jain, Buddhist, and Sikh sisters and brothers to spend some time to offer our prayers to God in thanksgiving as well as to implore God’s continued mercy and blessings for all.”
