1) In the picture I've uploaded, we see a bunch of different people striving to get a $100 dollar bill because, like how a lot of people are in modern society, they are driven by greed and strive for material things. This is a major reason why people need reconciliation and peace in their lives because being controlled by such materialistic things like money doesn't give anyone peace or tranquility. The real peace we can hope to get is being forgiven by God for all of our sins and all we've done that was wrong.

2) Turning to Christ is the only way we can get the peace and reconciliation we so desperately need in our loves because God is the only one who can forgive us of our sins. To truly be at peace and happy we have to allow the Holy Spirit to fill us up and let ourselves love through Christ to be forgiven.

This picture illustrates need for peace because as  you can see they are going through a rough time. Many people's live have been turned around with prayers and by the grace of God. If we can pray for peace for these people we would be participating in the goodness of God. Prayers sometimes go unnoticed but I think these people would be great full for anything they could receive.
2. Christ can provide peace if we believe good can be the outcome. If we hope good things God can make them come true because he is almighty. If we keep these people in our hearts God will act and there will be peace.

I think this picture shows the need for peace. This is kind of an extreme case but this picture represents one of the biggest evils in the world. But Isis is not the only group of people doing stuff like this. Jesus can save not only the people committing these crimes, but also the victims byshowing  thIsis members the truth and the way.

This photo shows the amount of healing the world needs. The recent shooting in Orlando shows that hate is trying to prevail over goodness. With these mass defections of hatred shows that despair has won. But God however is more powerful than that. As a society, we are living in a place where opinions are free. However, people must learn to accept and to,erase certain opinions, which is where people need reconciliation. People believe that a certain ideology or idea must prevail over the others. These people believe that hatred toward the "unwanted" ones will make the world more unified. Instead they are just making the world more uniformed than unified. This is where Christ comes in. With the power of Christ, we are given the strength to forgive but also give reparations for the wrongful act. Through Christ, we are unified through our diversity.

1) This picture represents a person finding happiness in material possessions. It illustrates the world's need for peace because we are attempting to find it in the wrong places. In addition, it shows a need for consolation and trust in God. These material items cannot bring true happiness, but the world often thinks that they can.
2) God can bring people peace in any struggle. For this particular situation God can bring peace through an understanding that we need him and not worldly possessions. When one discovers the love God provides, they no longer desire material possessions. God is the only thing that can fill the void in our hearts. He fills us with the love we desire.

As the magnitude of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, Fla., began to emerge Sunday morning, NPR's newsroom quickly mobilized; by 6 a.m. ET, initial plans were taking shape. Later in the morning, the newsroom moved into the live reporting known as "special coverage" for those stations that chose to air it.

As is common with big news stories such as these, listeners were divided over NPR's decisions. NPR did not move to full coverage quickly enough for some, while others, such as Susan McClear of Sitka, Alaska, objected to the special coverage that "does nothing more than glorify violence when 'it's early days' 'we don't know yet' 'the authorities can't tell us' etc. etc. is all that you can really provide." Here's an explanation of how these decisions come together that the newsroom provided at the time of the Paris attacks last fall.

Many listeners have been moved by NPR's reporting from Orlando in subsequent days: a sensitive interview that Ari Shapiro did with someone who lost a friend, his profile of the youngest victim, and Adrian Florido's profile of a young Puerto Rican-born man who lost his life.

Listeners and readers have also weighed in on other aspects of the reporting, including an error. Here are some of their concerns.

Searching For Meaning, Immediately

At 9:22 a.m. Sunday, an email came in to the newsroom from a Boston-area listener wondering "How is it not relevant" that the Pulse nightclub where the attacks took place was a gay club? Listener Mica Warton called it a "serious omission," adding, "Fix it."

NPR had indeed reported that it was a gay club in the 7 a.m. newscast, but not in the 8 a.m. or 9 a.m. newscasts. I highlight the concern because it was just one of a number from listeners that I would categorize as wanting NPR to be much faster to point listeners towards what the shooting meant. Even as reporters were still trying to get basic facts from authorities and witnesses, such as how many people were killed, my office was receiving emails from listeners who wanted NPR to be clear whether it was a homophobic attack, ISIS-inspired terrorism or a direct result of U.S. gun access policies.

This pressure is a direct result of the lightning speed with which news now travels, at least for those on social media. It is exacerbated by the punditry that cable news networks use to fill their many hours, and the highly politicized atmosphere fostered by the presidential campaign. The problem, of course, is that all the information necessary to put any event such as this in context is not available in the immediate aftermath, and sometimes not for days. Four days later, a full profile has still not emerged of what drove the shooter to kill 49 in the Pulse nightclub. It may likely be a combination of factors. For more thoughts on this pressure, including those of NPR's senior vice president of news, Michael Oreskes, see this CJR.org article and a column by Margaret Sullivan of the Washington Post. Oreskes also discussed this issue Sunday on CNN's " Reliable Sources."

My office is still receiving emails from listeners who believe NPR deliberately chose to underplay the fact that the attacks took place in a gay nightclub, and continues to do so. Mark Memmott, NPR's standards and practices editor, told me that "like in the early hours of any event, it took awhile to figure out what to say," as reporters scrambled to confirm numerous details about what happened. He added, "I don't think it can be said in our coverage that we were not very clear about the nightclub." I agree.

Getting The Guns Right

Several listeners wrote to complain that some NPR reporting mischaracterized one of the guns that law enforcement officials initially said was used by the shooter. (Officials first said the gunman used a handgun and an "AR-15-type" rifle; an Associated Press correction now reports the rifle was a Sig Sauer MCX, which is similar but not the same.) The listeners were right; an AR-15 is not an "automatic-style weapon." As NPR's online article explained, it is a semi-automatic, releasing one bullet with each pull of the trigger.

NPR called it an "assault rifle" a number of times. But that designation, while widely used elsewhere, is also to be avoided. According to The Associated Press, while the "precise definitions may vary from one law or jurisdiction to another," the "assault rifle" description is used by some to designate a gun meant for military use; the AR-15 family of guns was developed for civilian use. Some argue that the distinctions between guns made for military and civilian use are "disingenuous" but NPR's preferred style is to call such weapons "assault-style" or "military-style."

Mistakes when referring to weapons are an all-too-common occurrence when NPR is reporting on these kinds of attacks, although listeners picked up on fewer slip-ups this time than in the past. Memmott has issued repeated guidance on the description of weapons to the newsroom, cautioning reporters to be careful about these descriptions, and he said he issued another internal reminder Tuesday. Later in the week he also posted another online reminder.

One other thought from me: While those who are familiar with guns or steeped in the debate over access to them are well aware of all these distinctions, I am certain many other listeners and readers are not. A far better practice might be to take a couple of extra words and describe with some specificity what the guns in question do.

Not "The Deadliest Mass Shooting In U.S. History"

Part of the job of a journalist is to put a story into perspective. So the inclination to rank where the Orlando shooting fell on the list of "deadliest mass shootings" was understandable.

But journalists who venture out to call something the "biggest" or "fastest" or "first" invite criticism. Readers and listeners indeed reacted swiftly to NPR's repeated characterization of the Orlando shooting as "the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history" and an online article that seemed to back that up. As they pointed out, the characterization only holds true for recent mass shootings, and ignores an entire swath of earlier U.S. history, including numerous mass killings of Native Americans and African Americans.

I applaud the newsroom for following up quickly with a second article that acknowledged these concerns and tried to put the shootings into a broader historical perspective. That article concluded that it was more appropriate to call the Orlando shooting the deadliest in modern U.S. history. Many commenters remained unhappy even with the follow-up and still felt the list marginalized other such events.

Why compile such a list at all? Many readers seem to believe it was meant to convey the event's magnitude compared to other such tragedies on a sort-of "grief meter." Then I would agree that it made sense to include all such historical events, or better yet, not rank them at all. As one commenter noted, "Why can we not acknowledge a tragedy without pretentiously qualifying it?" Moreover, as numerous commenters have pointed out, limiting the list to "shootings" ignores other tragedies such as bombings and fires.

Or, by singling out shootings, was the list meant to give the audience information and context needed to form their own opinions about one aspect of the unfolding story, the debate over U.S. policy on buying and selling firearms? If so, it does make sense to limit the scope to more recent events. But, as a recent Washington Post article notes, how to define what qualifies as a mass shooting is an object of debate, with multiple definitions in use. One shooter or two? Did the event take place in a public space? Should the tally include only those killed, or those injured as well?

Bottom line: The newsroom waded into murky waters. There would have been nothing wrong with calling this one of the deadliest mass shootings of recent times and leaving it at that; alternatively, while journalists like to default to shorthand, in this case more precision about what exactly was being ranked would have avoided the problems. Either way, NPR should stop using the "deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history" designation, as it did even as late as one Tuesday headline.

Correcting A Special Coverage Slip-Up

NPR received some kudos in the journalism community for an online disclaimer that it used (and often puts on breaking news stories) that says: "This is a developing story. Some things that get reported by the media will later turn out to be wrong. We will focus on reports from police officials and other authorities, credible news outlets and reporters who are at the scene. We will update as the situation develops."

The progressive group FAIR.org, which monitors media bias, singled out one mistake that did indeed take place in the live "special coverage" portion of NPR's reporting. Discussing concerns about the theoretical implications of a terrorist attack happening in advance of the U.S. November elections, NPR's counterterrorism correspondent Dina Temple-Raston incorrectly characterized a similar historical situation, saying that voters re-elected a conservative government in the wake of the 2004 Madrid bombings, when in fact a socialist government was voted in.

NPR has posted an online-only correction, along with the original audio. FAIR argues that NPR should put the correction on air, as well, and that the correction should do more to explain the context of the error.

Memmott, who handled the correction, told me by email: "No mistake is minor, but her mistakes were not about the terrible news of that day. She was noting that there had been an attack in Spain just before one of its national elections and that officials are worried about such an event happening in the U.S. this year. Those are the important points. It is unfortunate that she was wrong about which party won the Spanish election, but should be put in context with all the reporting we were doing that day." He added, "I think the correction addresses both mistakes that were made."

As for not putting the correction on air, here is the newsroom's rationale, again from Memmott: "On-air corrections are most effective when they have a chance of reaching the audience that heard the mistake. There is no 'show' on which to broadcast such a correction because the mistake happened during live, special coverage." He added, "Obviously, if we feel an error is of such magnitude that it needs to be corrected on-air as soon as possible, we will do that and not worry about whether it was made on the same show. An example would be mistakenly reporting someone's death." And his final point: "Putting a correction online and attaching it to the audio that has in it the mistake are not minor steps. We've been very transparent."

Why NPR Names The Shooter

In the wake of Sunday's shooting, a number of listeners have asked NPR to stop using the name and (online) the photo of the shooter. These requests come in every time there is a similar event; I wrote about it previously.

Memmott told me, "We have talked about it throughout this event. Our thinking is that not saying his name is omitting a historical fact. That said, we understand the theory about how repeating the name over and over, and putting his face on stories again and again, can lead others to want to emulate a killer. We also know that people want to hear about the victims, the doctors, the first responders, the families, etc. - and that we need to do those stories and make room for them. Being judicious about coverage of the killer is important and helps us focus on those other stories."

In an interview with All Things Considered, Zeynep Tufekci, an assistant professor at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, argued not that news organizations never identify a mass killer by name, but that they should "develop sensible guidelines so that the coverage of such mass shootings is not done on the killer's own terms." It is a suggestion I believe is worth exploring.

Mailbag: Guns, Grief And Getting It Right After Orlando Shooting

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Listeners share their concerns about NPR's coverage of the mass shooting in Orlando.

# data[].attributes.body
1) This picture was taken after the Orlando shooting. This photo shows the worlds need for  reconciliation, peace, serenity of conscience. 50 Innocent lives were taken and 53 more were hurt from this mass shooting in Orlando's gay night club called Pulse. No one deserves to be hated, abused, or killed for who they are as a person. No one should have the power to choose when someone dies. Although this horrific event happened, people still came together to show their grief and love for the ones who died, the ones who are injured, and the families who were affected from it. They are showing the strength they have when coming together and making this issue known. God loves all his children, not just some.
2) Christ gives comfort to those grieving and shows them how prayer can guide souls into eternal life with Christ. He reminds us that love and respect for our neighbors is the only way to make real changes in our life and the world, and not let hate control who we are.

# data[].attributes.body
1. This picture demonstrates the worlds need for reconciliation. The generation that we live in now many teenagers and young adults main focus is technology and social media. When you let these two things consume your life, you almost forget what real life is and put yourself in a fantasy world.

2. The peace of Christ can provide by the simple fact that if we repent he will always forgive us. This situation in particular the boy is so trapped into his phone he doesn't no what is going on around him.

# data[].attributes.body
This picture expresses the need for serenity, peace, reconciliation, and consolation because people who are hit with either tragedy and death in their life are hurt. It is a difficult struggle to deal with, but with the help of peace and consolation, it helps others keep moving on and maintain their strength. Christ is able to provide peace and inner healing in these types of situations by expressing his everlasting love to us. Although, he can also use us to help console the person. We will and are able to always be there for them and give them the love they need and service as much as we can to help them feel happier and better.

1.) This picture shows how greedy us humans can be and how the world we live in now is so materialistic. We care more about how much money and how many cars we have..etc. instead of caring for how compassionate we are and others emotions. We will do anything to get ahead and we instead need to learn how to help each other in unison and learn and live the word of God.
2.) Christ can help us focus on our relationships with him and other people in our lives instead of focusing on money and material goods.

# data[].attributes.body
1. The image attached depicts not only the greed stemming from the wealthy, but also a severe lack of care towards the Earth and future generations to come. The illustration symbolizes the clear fact that we are ruining the Earth, ourselves, and only we can begin to make that change. Systemic greed is a massive problem around the world, and  the greedy are in need of reconciliation, in order to be relieved of their rapacity, and realize that the closer we get to Greed, the further we get from God.
2. The peace of Christ is vital for the sake of all people on Earth. The Earth is God's creation, and it's important that we keep good care of it. Jesus can allow us to realize how we can make a positive difference in the world, and end the idea that power/money=happiness.

# data[].attributes.body
1.) This picture represents a person's need for reconciliation because it shows how important money is to him. Money is portrayed as the most important thing for many people. Often it is said to "make the world go round". The people of earth need reconciliation to see the beauty and good in life without the need of money. Money doesn't make the world go round and is not necessary in order to live. Love and happiness should always be a priority over money.
2.) The peace of Christ can provide healing to a person like this by showing them the good of life through Christ. With Christ's love, we can appreciate the simple things and see the good in all people. Christ helps us heal to live a life of God. We can look over material wealth and use our wealth for the better of others and the earth.

# data[].attributes.body
The people in this picture are sitting on their phones not talking to each other. God teaches us that we need to talk to on another instead of shutting each other out. These people are in need of reconciliation because they aren't acknowledging the presence of the people around them.

Jesus teaches us that we should get together with the people that we love so that we can come togther and be one with each other.

1. This picture represented the need for reconciliation because of the damage and horrifying effects caused to the animals afterwards. Animal abuse is extremely wrong because it satisfies nothing and is pointless. There's no God driven reason to do it. The animals are also mentally scarred afterwards. It's hard for them to act in normal situations.
2. The peace of Christ can definitely help those in this situation. The abused animals can be prayed for. The people who committed the crime can go to confession and pray. God's love and mercy can help them too. The power of prayer can be used everywhere because of its powerful effects.

encourage others to participate in the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Sometimes we are too embarrassed to tell our sins because we know that it is fully rejecting God's love. Jesus gives us the strength and courage to confess our sins so that we can live with him in Heaven. We should think that when we are completely forgiven for our sins, we are moving closer to the Kingdom of Heaven.

1) This picture is of souls going from Purgatory to Heaven. I think this picture represent our need for forgiveness in the sacrament of penance and reconciliation. Purgatory is time of purification before we can enter in the joy of heaven. I think this picture will encourage people to repent for their sins because repenting not just for mortal sins but for venial sins as well could lessen our time in a state of purification. From there we can enjoy the eternal happiness that is provided in the Kingdom of Heaven. Only when we

1. This picture represents the hate in today's society across the world. Peace cannot be attainable without people accepting that hate and ignorance is what is killing our souls. Ignorance and hate causes murder and war. The need of reconciliation comes from the fact that a lot of people are guilty for harboring hate and ignorance towards others.  This is not what Jesus taught us to do.

2. The peace of Jesus can heal everybody because Jesus understands that we have difference but we are children of God. We must treat our brothers and sisters with respect. Jesus taught us that for no reason should we even think bad thought about another because we then have already committed murder. Jesus' healing power can help us see that we are a part of a family of Divine love and mercy. Once people start to understand that harboring hate and ignorance for others is murder, then maybe they will allow Jesus to heal them and their sins.

# data[].attributes.body
1) This picture shows that people need reconciliation because so many people in this world have so much money and don't use it for the good. Many people are selfish and should learn how to help people who have less then them.
2) God can show these people how to help other by showing them the pain these people who are suffering go through, because maybe they do not realize what is going on around them in the world today.

# data[].attributes.body
1) This photo shows the world's need for reconciliation, peace, and serenity of conscience because it shows that we need to give back to the world. This is because god created the world just for us and he loves us with all his heart. Our lives have all been just about greed and wealth thwt we never think about the only thing which keeps us alive. 2) Christ's peace can help these people by inspiring them to do more for the earth. Not only cleanse it of its filth and sins but to help cleanse its people.

1) This picture illustrates a person's need for reconciliation, peace, serenity of conscience and consolation because she has lost a family member. Family is one of the most mourned over things. Family is important. We are closest to our familes. This girl needs peace and serenity  of conscience because after losing a family member like this at such a young age it is hard, and she needs to find peace within herself and be calm. Times like these are always the hardest, and we need something to calm ourselves and try to think for the better. We need peace and serenity of conscience.
2) The peace of Christ can provide heals to this girl. As long as the girl has faith and love inside of her, anything is possible. Jesus Christ is a very humble being that taught us basically everything we know. Through praying, Jesus Christ can help the girl find peace and heal her. Jesus is always with us, and looking to help us prosper and not fail. Jesus Christ will stay above the girl, spiritually, and help her get through this rough time. We just need to be open to help, and seek Jesus Christ. Through Him anything can be done; we can reach any goal we strive for. All we need is hope, love, and faith.

1. This picture shows the need for peace and reconciliation. The shootings that occurred in Orlando were absolutely awful, and the fact that it happened to people who haven't done anything wrong. After this awful tragedy I believe that God will come and save us from this. I believe that he has something in store and that peace and reconciliation will shine on this world.
2. In the picture below you can tell that of course people are angry, but mostly they are just trying to be respectful. With the candles lit, and everyone is in silence you know that some of them are praying to God to be with the ones who passed and their families. This faith has given the people strength and hope that everyone will be okay.

1) Today lust is made to seem tantalizing through apps like tinder. When we have apps like tinder, we are made access to feeding our immediate desire and getting immediate satisfaction. When we actively live a life of lust and sin, we lose sight of Christ and his desire for us to live a life of chastity.
2) Christ can help us live a life of chastity and healthfully integrate our sexuality into relationships. We grow to respect our partner more when we respect ourselves. When we live a life of Chastity, we live a life closer to Christ.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Today lust is made to be seen as tantalizing, through apps like tinder. Lust is promoted and glorified, which takes our attention away from Christ. When we focus on immediate satisfaction to our desires, we lose sight of the importance of Christ.
2) When we chose to live a life of chastity, we focus on a virtue that Christ's want us to have, whether we are married or unmarried. Chastity not only makes for healthier relationships, but also brings us closer to Christ.

# data[].attributes.body
1) The picture I chose was one depicting "greed", or someone who loves only money and can never be fully satisfied with what they have. These people do anything it takes to make money and they worship it like a false god. They have no peace in their lives, since they will never be satisfied.
2) The peace of Christ can help these people, for they can worship God instead of their money. Jesus can set them on the right path, one full of life and enjoyment of others. Once their focus is away from money, they can fully enjoy God's presence in their lives.

This is a photo of the parents of christian grimmie during her funeral. Christina was murdered while signing autographs after a concert in Florida. Her family needs peace and serenity in this time of extreme sorrow because their daughter was taken brutally, by stranger, for no reason. There was nothing they could have done to save her and that is very difficult for parents to deal with.
The peace of Christ can be extremely beneficent in this time of sadness for the parents of Christina. Even though they are not with her anymore, they can believe that she is with God in eternal happiness in heaven.

1. Here is a picture of sadness. When people we love die we blame the death on Jesus becaues we become sad, stressed, and hopeless. At times like this we should turn to prayer and pray for peace and the person who passed away.

1. This photo shows a memorial ceremony for the victims and families involved in the horrible Orlando shooting. It demonstrates the world's need for reconciliation, and prayer for the world and it's citizens, especially the LGBT+ community. Not only does the shooter need reconciliation, but also the rest of the people who discriminate against LGBT+.
2. The peace of Christ can bring peace to the victims and their families, as well as the rest of the world and LGBT community. We cannot fight hate with hate, we can only fight hate with love. Christ can lead us in the path of love and give grace to all who need it. His peace will comfort those who are scared and frightened by this tragic attack.

This picture represents the need for reconciliation, peace, serenity of conscious, and/or consolation because these things are needed when grieving over the loss of someone. This literally girl had obviously lost a family member or someone very close to her in this picture, and since she's so young she probably will need reconciliation more. Children usually aren't aware of all the evil in the world until they get to a certain age, and death is one of these things they're not aware of. Also, by looking to God for reconciliation and peace, this teaches children to ask God for help. Christ can provide healing and peace by using the Holy Spirit to guide this child to reconciliation. She can also pray and ask for help in this troubling time.

# data[].attributes.body
This picture shows the world's need for penance and reconciliation because many people in our society are too obsessed with material goods. People become greedy. People have goals such as wanting to be rich, but this just shows our ignorance towards Christ. Greed is one of the biggest sins that affects our society today. It is a big offense towards God which in turn needs reconciliation and penance, along with serenity of conscience. 2) The peace of Christ can provide us with forgiveness and become reconciled. By being forgiven of this sin, people can live in a way free from greed or wealth.

1. This picture illustrates the world's need for forgiveness because clearly the two are unhappy. When someone refuses to forgive another, the anger and the lack of love hurts even the person who refuses to forgive. If the two asked for forgiveness in this picture, you would see smiles on their faces rather than annoyance and anger.
2. The peace of Christ could help these individuals become happier. If they realized that God and Christ forgive no matter what, they might find it in their hearts and o forgive a small mistake. These individuals could find love in the peace of Christ and apply it to their actions in order to forgive each other.

This photo is of Lane Graves and her two year old son who was tragically killed by an alligator attack.  Her and her family most definitely need Christ's love and concilation during this time because not only did they lose their baby but they are receiving hate from all over the world by strangers.  These strangers are so quick to judge and they too need Christ.  We, as Chrisitians, should be united together and help each other through such tradgic time.
2. The peace of Christ will allow this family some comfort even in a time such as this. This family can take comfort knowing that their child is in heaven with Jesus and is embraced in God's love.

This picture depicts the worlds need for reconciliation. Governments all over the globe have established spikes under bridges, tunnels and corners where homeless people reside. This is rather heartless. Taking people their own home when they don't even have an actual home is terrible. Governments are taking away the one thing homeless people want, a home. The people responsible for this need reconciliation because they are denying peace to certain people.
2. The peace of Christ can provide healing to the world. Christ would teach the world to welcome everyone and all kids of people. He would unite everyone and vanish differences in people.

1. One of the largest problems in modern society are based around the concept of greed. People today see wealth as the ultimate definition of success. People do not see anything wrong with throwing money away while others struggle to get a meal. We should be able to give up what we don't need. Poverty of heart is much more detrimental that poverty. Wealth is something that can be acquired only here on earth. However, what we can receive through our souls can be carried with us for the rest of time.
2. God's grace can help us because we are able to find the true meaning of life. A materialistic life is a shallow one that only fills temporary happiness. A rich life with God is one that can give us eternal happiness.

This picture illustrates the world's need for reconciliation and penance because people enjoy hurting others to make themselves feel superior. People chose others to target because they are different from them. Some may try to bully just to look and feel more popular amongst their peers. Christ can help these people realize that they are only hurting someone which thus, hurts themselves. Christ helps with forgiveness from the victim.

1) This picture shows the need for peace and serenity because a mass shooting in Orlando took the lives of many individuals. The people that lost their lives had families and were loved, yet taken away from their families because of a person filled with hate. There are people in our world that hate a particular group of people so much that they are willing to take all of their lives. This definitely needs to change because Jesus told us to love one another. Jesus did not say to only love some groups of people, he told us to love your neighbor. The people in the picture are remembering those who had lost their lives.
2) The peace of Christ can provide healing to those in this picture because he can comfort them and remind them that he is watching over the ones who had died. He can also guide the lost souls into eternal life with Him. Christ can remind those filled with hate to love their neighbor and to not send hate to others.

When we focus on immediate desires and satisfaction, we lose touch of how Christ calls us for a life of chastity and love.

This picture represents how well the people today stand with each other during tragedy. This was the motto around the world after the marathon bombing in Boston in 2013. Penance and reconciliation were needed for the people behind the attacks. They were filled with evil intentions that need to be flushed out of them by God. Prayers were needed across the world for the victims and casualties. Peace was desired by the city of Boston.

1) This image shows the worlds need for reconciliation and peace. In this picture then men are in war and weneed  to stop putting man out there to fight and kill each other. The people in this world need to make peace with one another instead of fighting and killing each other. If the world were to reconcile for all of the wars then everyone would be healed spiritually and there would be peace.
2) Christ would be able to provide peace and healing to all the people who were hurt and injured during battle. Also Christ would help heal all of the families that lost loved ones in war.

1. This picture presents a time of loss and sadness. When someone close to us passes away, we miss them and wish they hadn't passed. We become stressed, sad, and maybe even angry. So in times like these, we should seek peace and serenity.
2. Although we lose someone close to us, there's someone who will always be there for us. That someone is of course Jesus. With his help, he gives us peace in order to put an end to the sadness and anger.

1) This picture represents the concept of money and prices controls people in today's society's life. This picture represents the need for reconciliation because people can become greedy with the excessive need for money. Often times the lack or extends of money can cause problems between people which can cause a lack of peace.  Money can also cause a lack of serenity within their consciences. Because money is a large part of essential living within this life time, the constant thought of enough money begins to haunt people's minds.

2) Through the peace of Christ people will begin to realize that they do not need the material mortal wealth to satisfy their souls. Christ will help them realize that there's more to life than money and riches. Christ will guide them to show them that's if they trust and love him he will fulfill their souls. He will also help them focus on the essential financial needs opposed to the excessive ones. He will also help relieve stress up one those who worry about essential financial issues.

1. This picture shows our need for reconciliation. We are so caught up in our phones this generation. Our lives are based on social media. We should spend more time with God and our families rather than sitting on our phones the whole day.
2. Christ can heal us by making us realize that our phones and social media is not what life is all about. We should spend more time getting closer to God.

1)The picture of 9/11 represents the world's need for peace and Reconciliation, because the world needs peace from terrorism without violence and loss of innocent lives. More so, we need to be able to forgive everyone, even terrorists. Unfortunately, this is very difficult to do and requires a lot of mental strength.
2)The peace of Christ can give healing to individuals who have been affected by terrorism by giving them comfort and joy in their life. Also, Christ can give us the Sacraments to reach out to us and remind us of his presence. Furthermore, Christ gave us the gift of the Church and it has a lot of members who are willing to help people out when they need it.

1) This picture shows how the world is consumed by greed. The world is in need for reconcilation and consolation because we depend our happiness on matieral things. We need to realize that matieral possessions will only provide a temporary happiness, but a life with God will provide entenal happiness.

1) In this image we see young girl haunted by her sin. She is tortured by the guilt and shame of her sin and can't seem to let go of it. This young woman needs reconciliation and consolation so that she may feel forgiven and loved despite her mistakes. She needs to be able to let go and for many that isn't easy without an extra person to help fight that battle. To be able to come out of this darkness she needs help. Reconciliation will be her first step in getting out of this hole her sin has dug her.
2) The peace of Christ will provide her the overwhelming peace, love, and forgiveness she needs. No mere person can give her that this sin is a deep rooted sin and only a divine love and forgiveness will heal her. Christ will lift this burden and guilt off her shoulders so that she won't have to bare it alone. This complete surrender to Him is her only way out.

In this image, we see the relationship forming from making peace and forgiving each other. That feeling of forgiveness spreads, making each individual want to have that special feeling. The peace of Christ offers these individuals to forgive their past conflicts and start again, taking the higher road. By taking the higher road, they forgive each other and form that feeling of peace.

This picture shows the need for reconciliation because of the horrors that it represents. The death of millions is no small act, as even the killing of one person cuts one off from the grace of God. This shows a need for peace as a learning opportunity for the world, and the knowledge that something like the Holocaust cannot happen again. The picture also shows a need for acceptance, such as the way Jesus accepts anyone and everyone into the church and into his life.

The peace of Christ can help the victims to offer forgiveness for the events that occurred. There are still Holocaust survivors alive today, and they continue to do good in the world. People such as Elie Wiesel turn this terrible experience into something beneficial. Wiesel has become a political activist and humanitarian, making the forgiveness he offers be turned into a solution to make the world a better place.

1) This picture tillustrates the worlds need for reconciliation and peace because it is a photo of gravestones on Memorial Day of all the people who have fought in wars to protect our country and we need peace across the world to stop such destruction. The families of these men and women need peace during their times of grieving. Losing a family member or friends in war is a very hard thing for an individual to handle on their own so that is where Christ comes in to help.
2.  Christ can provide healing for the families and friends of those who have passed away while fighting for our country by answering there prayers and supporting them and holding their hand through this hard time. He is also with  The soles of the people who have been killed in war.

1. The picture shows a family crying at a grave because they have lost a loved one. This week many families lost a loved one by a mass shooting because the shooter was full of hate and turned to violence. The world is in need of reconciliation because most people do not love their neighbor and some people have that much hate for certain people or a certain group that they turn to murdering these innocent people. One of Jesus' most important teachings is to love your neighbor. As hard as that is, we all need to reconcile with God and each other and try to start a new path in the world where violence doesn't exist.
2. By the peace of Christ, the whole world can begin to once again love each other and see everyone as equals again. With this mind set, we can love more, and not hate. Yes, we hate the fact that so many innocent people lost their lives to a mass shooting. But instead of hating the shooter, we need to hate his actions because he may not have the correct mindset and not have the knowledge of peace and love in God that we have. If everyone tried to make a difference in how they saw, talked, and judged people, with the peace of Christ, we would have a more peaceful society that could possibly resemble the type of love and peace that is present in the Kingdom of God.

1. This is a picture from the Pulse mass murder that happened a few days ago. A man decided to take fifty lives that night out of hate. This photo illustrates this country’s need for peace and reconciliation because gun violence has gotten out of hand. Too many innocent lives have been lost to gunmen who wanted to hurt people. It is time that we stop the hate and learn to love or at least tolerate one another and our differences.
2. Jesus can help the people who are filled with hate and also the one’s who are victim to it. He can help the hateful see the light and to come to their senses. He can help them become a better person in Christ. He can heal the wounds inflicted upon those who suffer from hate and violence. He can bring them to peace once again. Christ can heal all wounds and all sins can be forgiven.

1) The picture I have chosen is a candid of two people embracing one another after the largest massacre in our history. I have chosen this picture because, more than anything else, our world needs reconciliation in order to give all the strength and love to aid in our acceptance of those we do not understand. Though beliefs are different, Reconciliation is needed to give people the strength to give love to those in need, not hate. This picture shows the worlds need for peace because innocent people are dying in our world, in our own backyards, and they need the power of Christ to strengthen those who are weak in the time of loss. 2).The peace of Christ can provide peace and harmony to these people by giving them the love they have lost that terrible night. These people need Christ's love more than ever now, for people have lost children, spouses, and friends... and they need Christ to fill the void their loved one has left. He can provide healing to a mother's broken heart, a father's broken soul, and a family's broken home, and with him all things are possible.

Distraught family members waited to hear about their loved ones as officials began identifying victims from Sunday's early-morning massacre at an Orlando gay nightclub - the deadliest mass shooting in U.S. history.

By sunrise, at least 50 people were dead and 53 more were hurt.

Witnesses described terror-filled moments.

A DJ hid behind his booth. Loved ones got separated from each other as they sprinted away from the club so fast their shoes fell off. People carried bloodied strangers, suffering from gunshot wounds, to ambulances waiting nearby.

The gunfire, which erupted about 2 a.m. at Pulse nightclub, lasted for the duration of one song, a witness said.

The gunman, who was killed in a shootout with police about 5 a.m., was identified by the FBI as Omar Mateen of St. Lucie County. The agency interviewed Mateen, 29, three times in 2013 and 2014 for expressing ties to terrorist organizations and contacting a suicide bomber, but they determined he wasn't a threat.

"This is probably the most difficult day in the history of Orlando," Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer said Sunday.

Officials worked to identify the dead, but by early Monday they had only released 26 names, with the victims ranging in age from 20 to 50. They warned the process would take time.

As hours elapsed after Sunday's shooting, Orlando and Orange County remained under a state of emergency at the order of Dyer and Florida Gov. Rick Scott.
'I saw fire coming out of his gun'
More than 200 people went to Pulse at 1912 Orange Ave., south of downtown Orlando, to celebrate Latino Night.

The first shots sounded about 2 a.m. as Mateen exchanged gunfire with an Orlando police officer. Mateen, armed with an assault rifle and a pistol, then ran further inside the club and started shooting into the crowd.

Witnesses said Mateen aimed at people, who dropped to the ground. For the next three hours, law enforcement and SWAT members worked to rescue hostages from inside the club.

"People were trampling over each other," said Jillian Amador, whose arm was cut by broken glass. "I feel terrible. I have anxiety. I'm scared. I don't want to go out."

"At first I thought it was fireworks ... I didn't believe it, then I saw people on the ground and people running," she said.

Omar Mateen has been preliminarily identified as the gunman in a shooting at Pulse nightclub that left 50 dead and 50 more injured.

About 5 a.m., police and SWAT members put an explosive device on a wall of the club and plowed through it with a battering ram. That's when Mateen rushed toward them and opened fire in his final, fatal gun battle.

Rosie Feba was there with her girlfriend.

"She told me someone was shooting. Everyone was getting on the floor," Feba said. "I told her I didn't think it was real, I thought it was just part of the music until I saw fire coming out of his gun."

Many worried relatives looking for loved ones Sunday flocked to makeshift headquarters set up by Orlando Regional Medical Center at a nearby hotel.

Maria Arocho of Orlando anxiously awaited information about her cousin Martin Torres.

"It's just so nerve-racking," Arocho said. "I haven't heard from him. What do I do? We call him and it goes straight to voice mail."

Others rushed to donate blood - specifically types O-negative, O-positive and AB plasma that were in short supply - at such a rate that centers asked donors to return later in the week when banks need to be replenished.

Victims experiencing emotional trauma related to the shooting can dial 2-1-1 for support, said Ashley Blasewitz of the Heart of Florida United Way.

By Sunday night, dozens of vigils were held across Central Florida and the nation, including a vigil in Newtown, Conn., where 27 people died in a 2012 mass shooting.
'An attack on all of us'
As more details of Orlando's tragedy unfolded, President Barack Obama tried to console a grieving nation after the deadliest mass shooting since Virginia Tech in 2007, in which 32 people and the shooter died.

The terrorist attack, Obama said in a televised news conference, reminds the country how easily someone can purchase a weapon that fires into a movie theater or house of worship.

Obama specifically offered condolences to lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender Americans who frequent Pulse and other clubs like it across the country.

"The place where they were attacked is more than a nightclub - it is a place of solidarity and empowerment where people have come together to raise awareness, to speak their minds and to advocate for their civil rights," he said.

Locally, LGBT and religious groups are rallying together in the wake of the shooting, condemning Mateen's actions.

"There is never, ever any justification for such unacceptable crimes against humanity, crimes against God, crimes against our country," said Hassan Shibly, executive director of the Florida branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

His statement was one of several offered by local Islamic groups. Imam Muhammad Musri, president of the Islamic Society of Central Florida, urged people to pray on what he called "a heart-breaking morning."

At a midday news conference, Carlos Guillermo Smith, a representative of Equality Florida, an LGBT advocacy group, stood beside Shibly.

Smith reiterated that the two communities are united.

"Let me be clear: Equality Florida stands in solidarity with the Muslim and Islamic community and in opposition to the intolerance, discrimination and hate crimes that both of our communities experience," Smith said.

1) The man represented in the picture is presumptuously considered to be a wealthy/successful businessman or entrepreneur. These qualities all work to illustrate our modern society's tendancy to strive for constant success and power, without considering the possibility of failure or spiritual growth. Our culture has continuously glamorized the ownership of material possessions such as money, power and expensive tastes that it is so often we tend to overlook the importance of our Catholic mission: service, love and making sacrifices for the good of others. People tend to look so far into the future when it comes to career, success-rate and social status, that we never stop to appreciate our impurities and imperfections. We are constantly told to strive for success, and constant perfection, that we never leave room for failure (the one thing that is required to grow and learn spiritual happiness).

2) God's love, grace and forgiving nature are the most powerful forces we possess as humans. Making mistakes and overlooking material success in the real world has negative consequences, but to Christ, it is the very fabric upon which our spiritual foundation is built. When we minimalize the importance of success and our future, we begin to embrace more the gift of the present. We are to focus our energy on living out God's work: to love our neighbor as we love ourself. When we place emphasis on these ideals, success, power and money are fickle in the grand scheme of our faith. Because while those things are important here on earth, we have to ask how important they are after we depart from our human bodies.

1.) This photo depicts the extremely materialistic society we live in today. The world needs to reconcile with God and stop relying on finding happiness within merchandise and start finding happiness in God. People must clear their consciences and find serenity by giving up using their money in an attempt to buy happiness.

2.) The peace of Christ can help the world to stop being so materialistic. Christ's peace is where people should be finding happiness. The peace of Christ can heal these individuals by helping them realize that true happiness can not be found in worldly items, but through Christ alone.

<1> The person presented within my chosen picture is  a victim to Karoshi. This man needs reconciliation and peace because overworks and does not spend time with his family, friends, or even a time to himself. It is a selfish act since you would only focus on yourself and not the people that matter. Even if it is a requirement to work such long hours the individual could overlook this and either get a new job or speak straight with his boss that he needs a time of relaxation.

<2> Christ can bring peace to a man like this if he would take the time to speak with Him and learn to be able to face himself to no longer hold the burden. He requires the aid of God who will bring him a "spiritual resurrection." The process of reconciliation helps increase your spiritual strength and will help you stay on the right path in life. This man could make more time for his family and sooner or later realize that work is not important compared to the love of his family.
