Sometimes we wish we were among those who walked with Jesus 2000 years ago. Pope Francis boldly says even today we walk with them.
Believers, when they want to see Jesus in person and touch him with their hands, know where to turn. The poor are a sacrament of Christ; they represent his person and point to him.”
insights into St. Vincent’s journey may lead us to recognize our own journey’s from looking for good news for ouselves to bringing good news to those on the margins.
John Prager CM has a stark reminder. Christ calls us to serve the poor, not only “the good poor”!
