Bishop Robert Brennan, Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn, has issued the following video statement following the assassination attempt against former President Trump:
I'm at Our Lady of Solace Church in Coney Island for Sunday Mass this Sunday morning, July. But how appropriate that I'm here in the Church of Our Lady of Solace.
We call on Our Lady of Solace at this moment when our Nation is in shock at the assassination attempt against former President Trump while he was on the campaign trail. Thank God he is okay, although we mourn the loss of a citizen who was present at the rally, and we pray for those who were injured in that shooting.
What a terrible, terrible act of violence. We have to condemn violence in every form, violence that afflicts our Nation in so many ways. At the same time, we must condemn the divisions and the rhetoric that raises hatred.
Indeed, we are people of differing viewpoints, and our democratic process is such a gift that we can debate things openly and then place our votes.
Let's pray for this Nation during this campaign season, for those who govern it, and for all the peoples of the United States that we will unite for the common good, always seeking the common good and respect for all life at every moment along the way.
And we will be a Nation seeking and asking God's blessings. Our Lady of Solace, pray for us.
