Charity is love made visible—in a meal served, a home repaired, a lonely person welcomed, a child encouraged, and a community gathered.
Today, on the Memorial of St. Teresa of Calcutta, we remember a saint who made that love visible through humble, concrete service. The United Nations chose September 5, the anniversary of her death, as the International Day of Charity in recognition of her extraordinary witness.
We give thanks for every young person, adult volunteer, friar, parish, and friend who helps Capuchin Family Ministries turn compassion into action.
Where will love take form through you today?
