Memorial of Saint Frances Xavier Cabrini

World Kindness Day

Reflection

“I will go anywhere and do anything in order to communicate the love of Jesus to those who do not know Him or have forgotten Him.” –St. Frances Xavier Cabrini

Prayer

Loving God,

Like the example of Mother Cabrini before us, make us always ready to share your love with those in need. We pray especially today for all those who do not know you or, for any number of reasons, have forgotten you. May your presence fill us, so that we may be reminders to them that you have not forgotten them, that your mercies are new every morning, and that, whatever the reason for their absence, you are ever watchful for their return. Amen.

Call to Action

Take time to consider those in my life who have walked away and forgotten God. Pray for God to find them in a new way today.
