Stamp featuring St. Pio of Pietrelcina.

The God of love wants us to find our way to the margins, knowing that if we do, the margins get erased. Rather than limiting our love to a priority list, we should stand with the poor, the powerless and the voiceless, with those whose dignity has been denied and those whose burdens are more than they can bear. . . Our wholeness increases when we accompany the demonized and the disposable, so that the demonizing ends and we stop throwing people away. . .We can find flourishing joy in welcoming the unwelcomed. We won’t ever be homesick.

-Father Gregory Boyle
