Reflection

“Kindness is like snow. It beautifies everything it covers.” –Kahlil Gibran

Prayer

Spirit of Kindness,

It’s the time of year when schedules stretch thin and our pace gets hasty. Amidst all the busyness, help us hold on to the things that matter most and the values that keep us human together, especially the value of kindness. Empower us as a ministry, not just to extend your healing effectively, but to do so with genuine kindness. In all that we do and say for patients and families, and our wider communities, keep us kind, especially towards those who might be the most challenging or those we are tempted to ignore and neglect. May we sincerely strive to beautify the people and places around us with kindness today. As a people on mission, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action

Be especially focused today on beautifying the people and places around me with kindness.
