I’m speaking out on social media and phone calls to my Senators and Representative - and urging others to do so - in objection to President Trump’s recent choice to support Russian oil sales while backing off of intelligence support for Ukraine. These moves are about the most egregious and heart-breaking thing I’ve seen this President do. He has a long history of making deals with Russia. Prayerfully, I hope my words are constructive - fitting of Merton’s “I don’t know …” -

I'm raising my voice to say: Please, please let the Pope take a much needed break from this crazy world. Let him retreat for the next two weeks. Give him the solitude he deserves. The travel will always be there. He needs to REST at this time and let his body heal. He can still be visible through posting his thoughts and prayers to the world. It takes courage to rest when there is so much to be done and you maybe feel like you can still work. We can wait for the results and for the healing. We are all in prayer for his recovery and having him back in good health is worth the wait. St. Augustine, please give the Pope and those close to him Wisdom to do whatever it takes now to keep him healthy for the long term. Amen 🙏

I will raise my voice to protest how we are harming God's creation. We were given Paradise and we have not been proper stewards of it.

I raise my voice for the rites of all people, citizens and non-citizens to food, a safe shelter, healthcare, and peace.

I will speak up for the dignity and intrinsic worth of every person, no exceptions, and for their right to safe habitation, sufficient healthy food, clean air and water and for freedom from persecution, violence, war and oppression. And for the care and protection of all creatures and creation. May Pope Leo rest and recover full health!

I'm raising my voice to say - pray for and... support Ukraine, stop the genocide in Gaza and violence in other nations, and treat immigrants with dignity and gratitude.

Please let Pope Leo rest he can go to Peru when he is fully recovered it’s madness to do it so soon after his operation.

I raise my voice to remind everyone: Whoever wants peace in the world must begin with themselves.
