A gun buyback and resource fair on Aug. 5 in West Baltimore is planned in conjunction with St. Joseph’s Monastery Parish (their pastor, Father Mike Murphy, is copied here). An FAQ is attached, as is a flyer with information on making a donation (you can use the QR code or mail a check to St. Joseph’s). We understand some feel that gun buybacks are controversial, but with this event the Archdiocese joins the Catholic Church in New York, Chicago and elsewhere in direct response to Pope Francis’ call to get guns out of circulation.
