To our brothers and sisters in Las Vegas, Ursuline College sends a message of support and prayers in the wake of the tragic shooting at the Route 91 Harvest Festival. With sympathy for the victims and their loved ones, we condemn this atrocity and recommit to the life-affirming values of community and nonviolence that are embedded in our mission.
With Cardinal DiNardo, president of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops, we pray, “May the Lord of all gentleness surround all those who are suffering from this evil, and for those who have been killed we pray, eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them.”
