We live at a time of global polarization, disconnection, and mistrust. The war now raging in Ukraine is taking lives, and destroying cities, but it is also tearing apart human relationships, turning friends and acquaintances against each other.

We want to pray now to the Child Jesus to fill our hearts with hope and give us the strength to go against the tide. He brought to us the lifestyle of Heaven, the lifestyle of mutual love, serving our collective needs for connection, friendship, harmony, integrity, and peace.
