April 3, 2026: Emmjolee Mendoza Waters Preaches for Good Friday

Preaching for Good Friday, Emmjolee Mendoza Waters invites us to choose compassion, justice, and solidarity like Simon, Veronica, and the women instead of joining "the crowd” in condemnation: "Who will we be? Will we be part of the crowd, swept up in fear or anger or even ignorance, crying out for death? Or will we step onto the road; shouldering weight, offering mercy, daring to weep?" Emmjolee Mendoza Waters is Director of the Death Penalty Abolition Program at Catholic Mobilizing Network,
