The TLM at St. Peter's + 9/11 25 Years Later

Rise Right

September 11th, 2026 - Blessed feast of St. Jean-Gabriel Perboyre! Today marks the 25th anniversary of 9/11. Please pray for the souls of those lost and for the continued healing of first responders and those who lost loved ones that day. The Knights of Columbus is marking the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks by remembering 46 members killed that day — including 12 firefighters, six law enforcement officers, and an elevator mechanic, who ran toward the towers to help others escape. Dr. Chad Pecknold, a prominent Catholic theologian and longtime professor at The Catholic University of America, was appointed the principal director of public outreach for DHS’ Office of Public Engagement. The foreign ministers of 12 nations, including the U.K., France, Canada, Spain, and Poland, issued a joint statement condemning “unprecedented levels of settler violence” in the West Bank and pledging restrictions on trade with Israeli settlements. Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico said he would “absolutely” vote for a national ban on “transgender” surgeries for minors and now says “there are two” sexes, walking back a 2021 claim that modern science recognized six. The shift comes in the final stretch of a dead-heat race against Attorney General Ken Paxton. New York recorded a 200% surge in the number of homeschooled children in the 2025-26 school year — more than three times the number 15 years earlier.
