“When I was a stranger, you welcomed me.” (Mt. 25:35)

Jesus teaches that whenever we welcome one of the least among us, we welcome Christ Himself.

Hospitality is a gift from God and an expression of a joyful heart. God gives His love to each one of us. As God loves us, He calls us to love one another. When we share the gift of hospitality, we try to help all in our parish family believe that, “We are pilgrims on a journey; we are travelers on the road; we are here to help each other walk the mile and bear the load.” Sometimes this means a genuine smile during the exchange of peace at Mass. Sometimes it may be inviting others to join a ministry you enjoy. As members of the Church of the Holy Cross, we all need to work to help assure that, “All are welcome in this place.”
