Lesson & Prayer Intention
How can God help the homeless?
God’s love and compassion can be a powerful force in helping the homeless. As followers of faith, we can take practical steps to make a difference in their lives. Here are some ways:
Volunteer: Volunteering allows you to directly engage with those in need and contribute to positive change
Respect: Showing respect can uplift their spirits and provide a sense of dignity they rarely experience.
Empathy: Compassion and empathy can go a long way in providing comfort and understanding.
Prayer: Pray for the homeless. Many face crushing circumstances, and prayer can offer solace and hope.
Remember that God’s love extends to all, including those experiencing homelessness.
These are challenging days, and Catholic Charities need your prayerful support to be a source of clear moral vision and effective action. In the pursuit of peace and justice, we strive to be the compassion of Christ as we advocate for and minister to those in need.
We have just launched the Changing Lives campaign. Catholic Charities is facing a double challenge: a decline in donations and an overwhelming surge in demand for essential services. Pray for us to receive the support needed to continue serving all who come to our door.
Let Us Pray Together
Heavenly Father,
O God of Loving Devotion,
please be near our homeless clients.
Remain by their sides and meet their needs.
Show me how to be a part of their lives by generously
giving my prayers, time, and money to help them.
Guide me so that I can spread your word to the needy.
Amen.
