PITTSBURGH (100.1 FM and AM 1020 KDKA) — Many other leaders have said their piece after Wednesday’s violent riots in Washington D.C.

And now, a religious leader has stepped up to sow a more uplifting message to the population.

Following the riots at the Capitol, Bishop David Zubik released the following statement:

“With a heavy heart, I have watched the unfolding, violent protests at our nation’s Capitol building complex. To all of you, my sisters and brothers in southwestern Pennsylvania and beyond: I invite you to join me in prayer that our shared love for our nation will truly unite us.

May God guide us to respond to the challenges of our day with a spirit of peace, and of faith, hope and love. God bless America! God bless us all!”
