For Immediate Release From Washington Archdiocese!
"Almost without being aware of it, we end up being incapable of feeling compassion at the outcry of the poor, weeping for other people’s pain, and feeling a need to help them, as though all this were someone else’s responsibility and not our own” (Evangelii Gaudium, 54). - This #WorldDayofthePoor let us pray for an increase in openness and desire to extend a hand to those in need.
