Sisters of St. Joseph & Boston Marathon Tragedy,

As Sisters of St Joseph and Associates may we keep in prayer all who were impacted by today's senseless tragedy. Our hearts are with all who lost loved ones and with those who were injured. We are aware many of you had family members, friends, and associates who participated in today's Boston Marathon. In addition many of our dear ones served as courageous first responders in the midst of today's tragic situation.

As we who live here in Boston are mindful of all who are affected, please know that our CSSJ sisters and associates across the country have been expressing their care and concern. Email, tweets, facebook posts, and calls have abounded. May this prayerful solidarity bring comfort and courage to face whatever ways we may be called to reach out to our neighbors in the days ahead.
