Why?

Just a few thoughts

• "We become not a melting pot but a beautiful mosaic. Different people, different beliefs, different yearnings, different hopes, different dreams." -- Jimmy Carter

• We pray for a commitment to fasting and penance which brings a holy discipline into our lives so that our hearts are free to love God and our neighbour.

• We pray for world leaders. May this United Nations Day of Social Justice call them to be champions of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
