9/11 Keeping Faith, Keeping Freedom
|
 9/11/2001
is a day that has been indelibly marked on the hearts and souls of Americans.
It was the day that 2,996 innocent lives were tragically lost, and a nation
was unified in sadness and grief. Once again, this year, the Archdiocese
of San Antonio joins members of San Antonio's interfaith community for the
second annual prayer memorial for the victims September 11, 2001, called
"9/11 Keeping Faith, Keeping Freedom". Last year nearly 100
faith communities of various faith traditions participated in their own
way, in their own communities, in this remarkable sign of unity in prayer.
Starting on the weekend prior to 9/11, and continuing throughout the
actual day, and the weekend following synagogues, churches, mosques and
schools will conduct their own prayer services with their individual congregations
and student bodies. Each institution will be given the names of 30 victims
of 9/11 to read aloud in their respective services so that each will
be remembered individually, reminding everyone that 9/11 not only
represented a national tragedy, but also a deeply personal tragedy for each
individual, their families, friends and communities.
