                       _______________Psalm 37: 5a_

         Com-

         mit 

         your 

         way 

         to 

         the 

         Lord 

         and 

         put your trust in him. 

 * Bartolomé 

 de las Casas  

  1484–1566   

   friar and 

  missionary 

 to the Indies 

who “lived his convictions with such zeal that he often seemed in tolerant to others, but is remembered as a tireless advocate for 

justice for those oppressed by colonial-

ism,” refusing absolution to those 

who would not free their 

slaves.

Help us, 

inspired by his 

example, to work 

and pray for the free-

ing of all enslaved people of our world… -Collect
