When school resumed, we wore our insignia of mourning to class.

“Reconciliation is, first and foremost, the prime objective of God. For that reason, he offered his son, Jesus Christ, to reconcile the world to himself. God did not end his efforts with his initial act. Instead, he enlisted believers to be messengers of reconciliation.
