Mahnomen Spreads Comfort and Prayers
Each blanket kit was assigned to a recipient and the students prayed for that individual while they tied the blanket; “every knot is a prayer.”
On Monday, January 20, many parishioners throughout the Diocese of Raleigh gathered at Holy Name of Jesus Cathedral to celebrate the Mass for the Preservation of Peace and Justice, which also commemorates the legacy of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The powerful homily given by Father Andrew McNair reminded all in attendance that scripture states "blessed are the peacemakers for they shall be called the children of God" and that without justice we have no peace, especially with the evil and injustice of racism.
