Reflection

“Christian love breaks down every barrier, brings close those who were distant, unites strangers, and reconciles enemies. It spans chasms that are humanly impossible to bridge and it penetrates to the most hidden crevices of society. By its very nature, Christian love is prophetic: it works miracles and knows no limits.” —Pope Leo XIV

Prayer

Gracious love,

As a global ministry and as people of conscience, you call us to practice the kind of love that goes in service to meet the greatest needs, that searches for the lost and hurting to extend compassion and inclusion, and that overcomes barriers by living into your vision of authentic human community. As partners together in mission with you, fill us with joy for the calling we share and let it flourish among us, beyond every limit. Amen.
