Inspired by Pope Francis’s latest encyclical, Fratelli Tutti, we’re running a full-page ad in the National Catholic Reporter to tell our Catholic President, Senators, and Representatives to take concrete steps now toward eliminating nuclear weapons.

The text of the ad appears on Pax Christi Metro DC-Baltimore’s site here

Will you sign on to show your support for starting now to eliminate nuclear weapons, and make a donation to help us cover the publication cost?

We’re requesting $25 for each individual signature and $50 for each organization. Any amount is gratefully accepted, and if you can add a little extra, we’ll meet our costs that much sooner. We’re aiming for the June 11, 2021, edition, and NCR requires three weeks of lead time, so please act now by signing on, making a donation, and spreading the word through your own networks.

To sign on, contribute online by May 15 or by mail by May 8. Here’s how:

  • To sign on with a donation online, click here and fill in the requested information, including how you want your (or your organization’s) name to appear in the ad. (Then click “Donate Now” at the bottom of the page.)
  • To pay by check, make it payable to Pax Christi Metro DC, with “NCR ad” in the memo line. Send it to PCMDCB, c/o Kurt Hansen, 6621 Struttmann Lane, Rockville, MD 20852, and again let us know how you want your name(s) to appear in the ad.
