You want to honor them? Then stop voting for politicians that take NRA money over the safety of your children. The choice is yours, America.

Thoughts and prayers have done nothing to stop the violence.

And encourage your congregations to vote for candidates that support pro-life initiatives that go beyond just banning abortion - like gun control, food and housing assistance, healthcare, etc.

Me too- but the point is the Catholic Church often supports single issue voting. They ignore every issue except abortion.

While leading the service, Archbishop Bernard Hebda described how young students helped one another during the horrific event and shielded their classmates from bullets.

"How tragic that was, and yet in the midst of that, there was courage, there was bravery, but most especially there was love," Hebda said.
