Prayers for the People of St. James the Just Parish in Ogden

Friend of the Blog Fr. Erik Richsteig had a shooting in his parish during Mass.  The victim is in critical but stable condition.  Fr. Erik says he will be OK.  The shooter was the victim’s son-in-law.

Father, heal the victim completely, give grace, wisdom, knowledge, understanding and skill to his caregivers; give grace, peace, faith, hope, and love to all who love him; and grant the shooter the grace of repentance through Christ our Lord. Mother Mary, pray for for all involved.  We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Update: Thanks be to God through our Lord Jesus Christ!
