San Francisco residents and Veterans for Peace gather in San Francisco March 24 for a candlelight vigil to honor the 4,000 Americans killed in the Iraq war. Bishop Gabino Zavala, the bishop president of Pax Christi USA, issued a statement March 19 marking the fifth anniversary of the invasion of Iraq. The statement reads in part: "Nothing can restore the precious lives which have been lost and damaged on all sides in this war, nor quickly repair the ripped apart social fabric of an ancient nation. But a change in U.S. policy to support a multilateral and diplomatic peace process offers the best hope for beginning to heal the divisions created by five years of war and occupation. Coupled with redoubling our economic support for Iraqi-led reconstruction, such policy changes are more likely to lead to stability and, in the long run, strengthen international cooperation and the global common good." Zavala is an auxiliary bishop of the Los Angeles archdiocese.
