Your Bible verse

We who are Jews by birth and not sinful Gentiles know that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by the works of the law, because by the works of the law no one will be justified.
Galatians 2:15-16
For René Aravena, Monsignor H. Gerald McSorley, Sister Dolores O'Dwyer, Sister Joan Maga, Monsignor Patrick McNulty, Agnes Coughlin, and all our departed friends.
