Luke 6: 20-31
For all the Saints

Who are saints in your family of faith? Who washed your feet, showed you God’s love? Going back further, who formed them? Br. Luke Ditewig, SSJE

These are the lives that were oriented to living out values that turned things around:

  • Where poverty, weeping, hunger and exclusion are experiences that have hidden deep within them gifts of strength and resilience.
  • And where getting ahead may lead to an unawareness of others.
  • And because the core motivation is to do to others as you would have them do to you,
  • Justice and mercy are favored over winning.
