Let us pray together
Blessed are those who, with the warmth of welcome and with patient gratuity, take care with the warmth of a home and go to meet the suffering man.
For Reflection
“This love knows no limits, it does not know how to say enough; this love would like to fly from one place to another and make this Divine fire burn throughout the earth and make all creatures feel its divine effects. Well then, my daughters, it is this love that has moved this poor and most loving Father of yours to come to countries so far from this one, to extend your Institute and to make its beneficial effects felt”.
Saint Benedict Menni
Hospitality in action
Listen attentively to the person next to you and offer emotional support.
Concluding prayer
Saint Benedict, Samaritan of God, in the sick and poor brother. Saint Benedict, Hospitaller of God, you become the brother of all. Saint Benedict, your faith reveals the face of God in the brother you care for. Pray for us who are, for you, the face of God. Amen.
