GOOD WORKS
Hello, this is Cardinal Rigali.
Mother Teresa of Calcutta once said, "Good works are
links that form a chain of love." It is important for us to do good works because it is
an outward expression of our love for others. There are so many people in the world who
need our help - the homebound
elderly, the sick and dying, and the poor and hungry.
Good works are also vital
to living the Gospel message that Jesus preached: "Whatever
you did for one of these
least brothers of mine, you did for me." (Matt. 25:40)
God calls all of us to do
good works, however small. I encourage you to seek opportunities to be
the kind of person that Mother
Teresa talked about by doing good works and being a link in the
chain of love in our world
today.
May God bless you all.
