Monday of Holy Week: Stand, and Fight, for Justice
Sometimes it would be easier to turn away than to hear the news of one more Black person killed by injustice, but Jesus’ followers are called to join his stand for justice.
Patrick Saint-Jean, S.J., is an amateur of life, a psychoanalyst by training, and a passionate practitioner of Ignatian spirituality and Black Spirituality. He is a Jesuit in formation at Creighton University in Omaha, NE where he teaches in the department of psychology.
Sometimes it would be easier to turn away than to hear the news of one more Black person killed by injustice, but Jesus’ followers are called to join his stand for justice.
During this Lent, today, we are invited to breathe and stand in solidarity with all of America, to help her give birth to something new.
From Martin Luther King, Jr.’s, dream to Joe Biden’s promise, unity is our strength. Unity is what gives dignity to love. Unity is the action that moves the will to love.
Sign up now to connect with the Jesuit network and learn how you can learn, educate, pray, and advocate for justice year-round.
