Rapid Response 47(@RapidResponse47):FDNY Chaplain Msgr. Jamie J. Gigantiello blesses a 21-foot steel beam recovered from the World Trade Center's South Tower, which is on display at the White House today as part of @Tunnel2Towers's "Steel Across America" tour: "Lord, we now ask you to bless this beam — once part of a structure that fell now becomes a structure of memory, a foundation upon which we build something stronger. Let it symbolize courage, sacrifice, unity, and hope. Let every mark upon this steel remind us of a life, a soul, a human person. Let every bend remind us of courage. Let every inch of it remind us that from the greatest darkness, people can choose to bring forth light." 🙏🇺🇸
