How Often We Forget To

All Revealed Truths Derive From The Same Divine Source And Are To Be Believed With The Same Faith, Yet Some Of Them Are More Important For Giving Direct Expression To The Heart Of The Gospel. In This Basic Core, What Shines Forth Is The Beauty Of The Saving Love Of God Made Manifest In Jesus Christ Who Died And Rose From The Dead.

To Follow Jesus Means To Share His Merciful Love For Every Human Being.

For Us Christians, Love Of Neighbour Springs From Love Of God; And It Is Its Most Limpid Expression. Here One Tries To Love One's Neighbour, But Also To Allow Oneself To Be Loved By One's Neighbour. These Two Attitudes Go Together, One Cannot Be Exercised Without The Other. Printed On The Letterhead Of The Missionaries Of Charity Are These Words Of Jesus: "as You Did It To One Of The Least Of These My Brethren, You Did It To Me". Loving God In Our Brethren And Loving Our Brethren In God.

Dear Friends, Let Us Not Forget The Flesh Of Christ Which Is In The Flesh Of Refugees: Their Flesh Is The Flesh Of Christ.

Hence Your Task Is Increasingly Demanding In Order To Promote Tangible Responses Of Closeness, Journeying With People, Taking Into Account The Different Local Backgrounds.
