Rules V Compassion

Just a few thoughts

·        We, the Church, so much need to recover a vital sense of the teachings of Jesus, and if we did, it would revolutionise the way we understand our mission in the world. There would, for example, be far more emphasis on deeds of love than on ritual observances.  --  Fr Paschal Kearney

·        "A person's most useful asset is not a head full of knowledge, but a heart full of love, an ear ready to listen, and a hand willing to help others."  --  Helen Barry
