As Christians, we have an additional reason to love and serve the poor ; for in them we see the face and the flesh of Christ, who made himself poor so to enrich us with his poverty.
That is why the center of our faith isn't just a book, but a history of Salvation, and above all, it's about a person: Jesus Christ, the Word of God made flesh.
Be close tot he poor, the needy, to touch in their flesh the flesh of Jesus. Be close, please
