Hope

We Can’t Look Away

God calls us to welcome the immigrant, the refugee. Jesus was an undocumented refugee as a child. We cannot look away.

When the pain is real, it is hard to hear the promise. Suffering and pain are part of the journey, but if we stay, we will reach Easter.

If only one kiss could solve all the world’s problems. Can we find Joy among war and turmoil and all the weight we carry?

Like Joseph, we are called to do something greater, to look for the opportunities during this time of struggle.

Even when things seem bleak, God is always with us.

In your grief, don’t forget the power of God.

Get rid of your fears and work for justice. Look for the helper.
