Son, nothing in this world now affords me delight. I do not know what there is now for me to do or why I am still here, all my hopes in this world being now fulfilled.

- St. Monica, on the conversion of St. Augustine

Solidarity:

Help us to see good in others, God of Solidarity, as we work to create a world where all people respect one another. Let us dream, work and pray together. Amen.
