The success of our mission depends on whether “we have fed the hungry and have given drink to the thirsty, welcomed the stranger and clothed the naked, or spent time with the sick and those in prison. Mt 25:31-45: ...if we have helped others to escape the doubt that causes them to fall into despair and which is often a source of loneliness; if we have helped to overcome the ignorance in which millions of people live, especially children deprived of the necessary means to free them of the bonds of poverty; if we have been close to the lonely and the afflicted; if we have forgiven those who have offended us and have rejected all forms of anger and hate that lead to violence;...” if we have had the kind of patience the Creator shows, who is so patient with us; and if we have commended all the brothers and sisters of humanity in prayer... - Pope Francis
