the lonely and the unwanted
according to the graces we have received
and let us not be ashamed
or slow to do the humble work.

not claiming that we alone possess all truth
and that somehow we have a corner on God.

not what they say and do at 10 am on Sunday.

My religion is very simple. My religion is kindness.
- Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama

Never let your zeal outrun your charity.
The former is but human, the latter divine.
- Hosea Ballou

Lord, grant that I might not so much
seek to be loved as to love.
- St. Francis of Assisi
