Today’s Reflection:  We pray to you, O Lord,
For the lepers of our world today,
The untouched, the unloved, the rejected, scorned, and forgotten
For their needs and desires… and for hope
Be with them in a special way
Help give us the Compassion of Jesus to be welcoming, inclusive, attentive and loving to all those who cross our paths
To treat everyone we encounter with dignity and respect as You did.  Amen — Carl Caceres, SJ

Today’s Reflection: Repeated in response to a request – I’ve seen better days but I’ve also seen worse. I don’t have everything I want but I do have all I need. I woke up with some aches and pains but I woke up. My life may not be perfect, but I am blessed. — Unknown
