For Families in Crisis

"We will open our hearts to the cries of the poor..." (Chapter Statement)

In this video, produced by the Pope’s Worldwide Prayer Network, the Pope tells us that “each person” in the family “is unique,” but that “differences can also cause conflict.” He adds that to heal wounds, forgiveness is key, “even when there’s no possibility of the ‘happy ending’ we’d like.”

We are invited to pray "that broken families might discover the cure for their wounds through forgiveness, rediscovering each other’s gifts, even in their differences."
