They came first

for the Communists
and I didn't speak up -
because I wasn't a Communist.

for the Jews
and I didn't speak up -
because I wasn't a Jew.
 
 

Then they came

for the trade unionists
and I didn't speak up -
because I wasn't a trade unionist.
 
 

Then they came

for the Catholics
and I didn't speak up -
because I was a Protestant.
 
 
 

Then ...
 
 

the came for me -
 
 
 

and by that time
 
 
 
 

no one was left
to speak up.

It is our task, our responsibility, to stand against the injustices of this world. We are called, no, it is our being, to stand against adversity, to suffer with those who suffer, to stop the hatred and evil that stands against God's creation.

Our faith is more than our belief.
Our faith is lived out by what we do.
