This moment should remind us to ask: Who else is not fully included in the life of the Church? The Social Principles remind us of many that we sometimes fail to see and treat with full respect: persons with disabilities and chronic illness, immigrants, people of color, persons of advanced age, children, the poor. Today: sharing and hearing stories of not being seen.

IN SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY AND THE WORLD: Please pray for those who are hungry, displaced, sick, or in poverty because of natural and human-made disasters, and for the workers who minister to them.
