A wonderful, bold, and compassionate step towards peace — fantastic!
This is exactly what needs to happen. The more of us turn our attention to the forces at work for good in the world, the sooner peace and the safety of our planet will be a reality. What a wonderful article! I have passed it on to my email list, and asked them to pass it on as well. Thanks for this excellent one, Geri!!
There was some follow-up by Catholics to the letter, who found it encouraging. See the update here:
