A life in common

Web3 man hands wooden table rosary mary chaplet shutterstock

Saint Matthew Parish  issued the following announcement on Jan. 20.

“There are many good reasons to believe in mankind’s capacity to act together in solidarity and, on the basis of our interconnection and interdependence, to demonstrate concern for the more vulnerable of our brothers and sisters and for the protection of the common good. This attitude of mutual responsibility is rooted in our fundamental vocation to fraternity and a life in common.” — Pope Francis

Reflection: What reasons would you give for believing in mankind’s capacity to work for the common good? How might these examples sustain your faith when people do not demonstrate concern for others or for our common home?
