USCCB Marks 9/11 Anniversary with Memorial Website

WASHINGTON - The Catholic Church Remembers, a website to mark the tenth anniversary of 9/11, highlights people's firsthand experiences of pain and hope from the disaster. 

 

The site has some reflections and remembrances from clergy who ministered to victims and their families, and others who were impacted by the tragedy.  Also provides liturgical resources for parish and diocesan observances and links to bishops' statements and other materials for reading and reflection.  The resources are available in English and Spanish.  We encourage you to visit the site and  to use these resources if you are planning any special event for this ocassion.
