Gov. Sam Brownback is calling on Kansans to
seek and bestow forgiveness for past failures and wrongs as the
holiday season approaches.
Brownback issued a proclamation Thursday declaring "A Week of
Reconciliation" that runs through next Wednesday – the day before
Thanksgiving.
The governor’s proclamation describes reconciliation as "a
powerful concept and tool in improving human relations." Brownback
— a practicing Roman Catholic — urges all citizens to contact
anyone from whom they’re estranged to be reconciled "even if the
other person has done most of the wrong."
