Continuing our reflection on the Corporal Works of Mercy July
Focusing on Family A person is not just an individual but a member of a community.
Family is the basic unity of society (sacred but also social).
Social conditions can stabilize or de stabilize family structure.
Marriage and family must be supported and strengthened. Current challenges to family include divorce,
exclusion of religious education in the family, lack of parental discipline, disobedience, disrespect for parents and state interference with parental authority.
Pope Francis explained how individual families can express the Gospel by "witnessing solidarity with the poor, openness to diversity of people, protection of creation, moral and material solidarity with other families in promotion of the common good and transformation of unjust social structures beginning in the area where the family lives through the practice of the corporal and spiritual works of mercy."
Christian Families "can be a sign of unity for the world and bear witness to the Kingdom and Peace of Christ' by simply presenting to their children a model of life based on the values of truth, freedom, justice and love."-St. John Paul II.
Use summer with your family to enjoy each other and to strengthen bonds of love and affection.
