FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Jan. 9, 2024
Duluth Bishop Daniel Felton has issued the following statement regarding last night’s shooting in Cloquet.
I am grieved to learn that the wound of deadly violence has struck the normally peaceful community of Cloquet. We are just finishing our joyful celebration of Christmas, which marks the birth of Jesus Christ, the Prince of Peace, announced by angels offering peace on earth to people of good will. I pray that Jesus will grant salvation to the victims of this violence and healing and hope to all who mourn them. As Catholics who always seek to bring mercy, we also pray for the deceased perpetrator, that he may find forgiveness. And may the peace of Jesus Christ prevail, removing violence and hatred from every human heart.
