(OSV News) \u2014 Mexico\u2019s bishops called on the country to \u201cwork together toward peace\u201d after a massacre on a soccer field in west-central Guanajuato state claimed 11 lives and injured a dozen more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gunmen descended from two vehicles and opened fire on players and spectators at the recreational soccer match at around 5 p.m. on Jan. 25 in the community of Loma de Flores, in the municipality of Salamanca, according to local officials. Authorities have not offered a motive for the attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis act deeply wounds life, human dignity, and the peaceful coexistence of our society. We demand that it not go unpunished,\u201d the Mexican bishops<\/a>\u2018 conference said in a Jan. 26 statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe stand in solidarity with the families of the victims<\/a> in Salamanca. We offer our prayers to God for the eternal rest of those who have lost their lives, for the comfort of their loved ones, and for an end to the violence plaguing Mexico.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Diocese of Irapuato, which includes Salamanca, said in a statement, \u201cWe condemn all acts of violence<\/a> that wound human dignity and social harmony.\u201d The statement added, \u201cWe also ask the authorities to act responsibly and firmly to clarify the facts and ensure access to justice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The massacre in Guanajuato \u2014 Mexico\u2019s conservative, Catholic heartland and a hub of automotive manufacturing \u2014 continued the violence that has convulsed the country for nearly 20 years as drug cartels dispute territories and expand into criminal activities such as extortion, kidnapping<\/a> and fuel theft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are facing the consequences of family and state neglect,\u201d said bishop<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Salamanca is home to a large Pemex refinery, and criminal groups there siphon refined petroleum products from pipelines flowing from the facility. Guanajuato has experienced a series of massacres in recent years, including a March 2025 killing of eight and a May 2025 massacre that killed seven young people<\/a> outside a parish in Salamanca after celebrating Mass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe government, the authorities will have to take charge of these difficult situations, but \u2026 families will also have to take charge of these difficult situations,\u201d Bishop Enrique D\u00edaz D\u00edaz of Irapuato told local media. \u201cRight now we are facing the consequences of family and state neglect.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The violence in Guanajuato comes as Mexico faces pressure from the Trump administration to crack down on drug cartels. President Donald Trump has said drug cartels control Mexico and offered to send in U.S. soldiers \u2014 a gesture rejected by Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Mexican bishops\u2019 conference, the Jesuits\u2019 Mexico province and the Conference of Religious Superiors of Mexico have promoted a peace-building initiative known as the National Dialogue for Peace. Organizers have called on the authorities to listen to victims of violence<\/a> \u2014 such as the families of Mexico\u2019s many missing persons \u2014 along with addressing rampant crimes such as extortion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Catholic Church<\/a> has not been spared the violence afflicting Mexico. Two suspects jumped the gate in front of the cathedral in Puebla, 80 miles southeast of Mexico City, during the early hours of Jan. 24 and set fire to the cathedral doors. The Archdiocese of Puebla said firefighters responded quickly, limiting damage to the building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Archbishop V\u00edctor S\u00e1nchez Espinosa of Puebla celebrated an act of reparation following the attack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe regret and condemn the attempted arson against the Puebla cathedral<\/a>, in which one of its main doors was damaged,\u201d the bishops\u2019 conference said in its statement. \u201cThis act attacks the material, spiritual, and cultural heritage of humanity. We join the community of Puebla in demanding a thorough investigation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
