Great news for the Haitian community! The US House passed a bill extending TPS for 3 years, offering compassion and courage against attempts to send people back to a country in disarray. Now, we push for the Senate to make it law. #Haiti #TPS #Advocacy

Pope Leo XIV is not ‘woke’, nor a Marxist, nor a progressive, nor a leftist.

The Pope is simply a Christian.

When he defends the poor and the innocent, he is following the Gospel.

When he denounces injustice, he is imitating Christ.

When he speaks for the poor, he is repeating word for word the Sermon on the Mount.

Those who are angry at him are not fighting with Pope Leo XIV.

They are fighting with Christ.

Because it was Jesus who said: ‘Whatever you did for the least of my brothers, you did for me.’

Rejecting the Pope for being merciful is not something a Christian does.

The problem is not that Leo XIV has strayed from Christ.

The problem is that some have strayed so far from the Gospel that they no longer recognize it when they see it.

Palm Sunday reveals the true King, not one crowned by this world. Jesus, however, arrives on a borrowed donkey, not a warhorse, with fishermen, not soldiers, ready to serve, not be served. #Faith #RealKing #Service

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

The same crowd shouting 'Hosanna' on Sunday might shout 'Crucify him' by Friday. They wanted a king who met *their* expectations – a warrior king to restore glory, not one to fulfill divine purpose. .#Faith #KingdomOfGod #SpiritualTruths

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

We don't need a king of fear, or one who builds walls and hoards power. We need a king who serves, who lifts, and who declares everyone is made in God's image. Give us Jesus. #GiveUsJesus #Faith #ServantKing

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

Palm Sunday presents a profound choice: Are you in the procession of concentrated power and force, or the one of distributed dignity, even on a donkey? It challenges us to choose which path we are truly walking. #Faith #Choice #Community

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

Palm Sunday isn't passive; it's a call to action. Join a movement that champions God's image in everyone, questioning systems that oppress. #FaithInAction #KingdomLiving #SocialJustice

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

Even when empires seem to win & justice feels distant, the King's truth endures. His kingdom will outlast every empire, overturn injustice, and uplift all that the world tries to bury. The one riding on a donkey is still King. #Faith #Hope #Justice

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

Witnessing a collision: empire vs. liberation, domination vs. dignity. Palm Sunday reveals the King who drags a new world into existence, challenging Caesar's rule. His arrival on a donkey is not subtle—it's an act of resistance. #Faith #Liberation #NewKing

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

@djschwartz2 @nytopinion @FIAnational I could get behind this notion of an Imperial Congress if the next Congress were willing to radically reshape itself with more representatives and inclusive of new political parties that are actually accountable to the people.

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

Faith leaders and advocates gather at the Supreme Court, urging for the extension of Temporary Protected Status for Haitian siblings. We are asking the justices to consider 'What would Jesus do?' for those struggling. #FaithInAction #TPS #Haiti

This is amazing. DHS bought a warehouse in a city called Social Circle, Georgia. When the city council asked DHS how they planned to use the warehouse, DHS refused to answer.

So, the city cut off water and sewer services and put a lock on the water meter, and said that services will remain off “until ICE indicates how water and sewer to the facility will be served without exceeding the limited infrastructure capacity.”

Outstanding. We need more of this! This is how we stop fascism.

@EJKorvette I was refer8ng to the President. He is perpetuating political violence.

We are no longer the "City on the Hill." The light is covered up by the bushel basket. #releasethefiles #SOTU2026 #allGodschildren

The United States tonight is the laughingstock of the World. Trump makes us look terrible.

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

Trump lies, use misinformation, disinformation, more lies, obfuscates, and uses misdirection to confuse people but we all know he is just a liar.

[Bishop Dwayne Royster @ddroyster]

This State of the Union address is political violence. #SOTU

Lafayette Park is closed for renovations, postponing our White House witness for now. We're finding a new location to continue our faith-rooted fight for justice. #FaithInAction #FaithInAction #Justice #Advocacy
