Today is the Feast Day of St. Peter Claver, a Jesuit called by the beautiful title Los Esclavo de los Esclavos, the Slave to the Slaves. A remarkable life, presented here by the Apostleship of Prayer. Peter Clavers vivid witness of loving kindness, openness to, and community with, members of other races and ethnic groups is especially important today. The prayer read in Jesuit community Masses today is lovely: God of mercy and love, you offer all peoples the dignity of sharing in your life. By the example and prayer of Saint Peter Claver, strengthen us to overcome racial hatred and to love one another as brothers and sisters. We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
