Pray For Minneapolis Shirt – A Tribute of Faith, Remembrance & Solidarity
The Pray For Minneapolis Shirt is centered around the tragic August 27, 2025, shooting at Annunciation Catholic School during a morning Mass—an event that claimed the lives of two young children and left seventeen others wounded, including fourteen students and elderly parishioners. The design, featuring a heart and cross above a silhouette of a gun, visually encapsulates the tension between faith and violence—and the hope that endures through prayer and solidarity.

The green heart paired with the cross honors the resilience and compassion sparked by the community’s response to the tragedy, while the stark gun silhouette beneath serves as a solemn reminder of the cruelty manifested in that sacred space. This striking visual narrative calls to mind the moments when children hid beneath pews and one student shielded another, exemplifying courage amidst chaos.
Annunciation Catholic Church and its affiliated school have served the Windom neighborhood of Minneapolis for more than a century, dating back to the 1920s when Dominican Sisters first opened a parish school to a small group of students. That legacy of nurturing, faith-inspired education—and the anguish of this modern-day atrocity—imbue the shirt with profound meaning. By wearing it, one joins a collective act of remembrance, lending a voice to healing and compassion.
This garment exists not only to honor those affected by tragedy but also to affirm that even amid targeted hate and terror—this incident is under investigation by the FBI as a domestic terrorism and anti‑Catholic hate crime—there remains space for empathy and solidarity. Whether you’re connected to Minneapolis or moved by broader struggles for peace and unity, the Pray For Minneapolis Shirt serves as a powerful declaration that remembrance and collective healing are not forgotten—and that faith can guide communities forward.
