 May Mercy Prevail on Earth
Interfaith Evening of Prayer - Christ the King Passionist Retreat Center
The Passionist Religious Community of Citrus Heights joins with the Interfaith/Ecumenical community of Greater Sacramento as together we offer prayers and blessings for a more merciful World.
We gather as Francis, Bishop of Rome, inaugurates the Year of Mercy. All of our Faith Traditions have something important to say about mercy. Tonight we gather to glean the wisdom of those Traditions as we seek to be a people of mercy, compassion, and respect.
