Let us embody all that is holy and decent.  

Defend the innocent and protect humanity.

Protect against harm and incursions, domestic and abroad, into our democracy and basic human rights to live in peace and dignity.

Let our lasting legacy be one of honor, not one of depraved indifference, corruption and cruelty.

Let us follow the spirit of Jesus Christ, without idolatry and the groomed malice of hate and fear, ignorance and hypocrisy.

Let us hand down to future generations functioning processes of hope, love, kindness and empathy, and not the shame of crimes against humanity.  

If we must fight, then let us fight with wisdom and bravery.  

If we must sacrifice, then let us sacrifice with honor and dignity. 

Let us leave our children paths of real salvation in prosperity, love and peace, not  compromised, corrupt and damning practices of aggression, hate, fear and sins.
