Kate Drexel came from a wealthy family in Philadelphia. R iding through the city one day in the 1880s, Kate saw the tragic plight of African-American children living in hideous slum conditions. When she prob ed their plight, she became convinced that prejudice, broken promises, a nd unjust laws were creating a cycle of ignorance and powerlessness for the se children.

"I love you just as the Father loves me." ~ John 15:9

Someone asked an old chief "Why're you always talking about Jesus?"

The chief didn't say anything. Instead, he collected some dry grass a nd twigs and put them into a circle. Next he caught a caterpillar, feeding on a nearby clump of weeds. He placed it inside the circle. Then, he took a match and set fire to the dry grass and the twigs. As the fire blazed up , the caterpillar began to search for an escape.

At this point the old chief extended his finger to the caterpillar. Instantly, it climbed on to it. He said, "That's what Jesus did for me. I was like the caterpillar , without hope. Then Jesus rescued me. How can I not talk abo ut my Savior's love and mercy?" ~ Mark Link, S.J.

How grateful are you for what Jesus did for us? How do you show it concretely?

"It wasn't the nails that held Jesus on the cross but his love for us." ~ ; Author unknown
