SACRAMENTO, California, Nov. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The single antidote that will truly alleviate the tension and angst in Ferguson, Missouri resides in the peace that only Christ can render. The prophetic and conciliatory concept of “Shalom” – a peace where nothing stands missing or broken – presents the prescription for a community divided by race and fear.

In the wake of the long-awaited decision by a St. Louis County grand jury, we pray for peace. We plead for reconciliation. We yearn for all parties to recognize that both Michael Brown and Officer Darren Wilson represent individuals created in the image of God. In the name of Jesus, we call upon the God that heals to enable truth, love, justice and forgiveness to silence the voices of hatred, division, strife and violence.
