Joe Pisani wrote a beautiful review of the Mass for Suicide Healing and Remembrance at St. Rose of Lima Parish, which is well-worth reading in its entirety.
“The Mass coincided with National Suicide Prevention Week from September 8 to 14. Suicide is one of the leading causes of death in the United States, and according to data by the Centers for Disease Control, almost 50,000 Americans died by suicide in 2022, and another 1.7 million tried to take their lives in 2021.”
