"Be compassionate as your Heavenly Father is compassionate." "I was hungry and you fed me -- a stranger and you welcomed me." "Go and learn the meaning of the words - it is mercy I desire, not sacrifice."

Over and over again Our Lord taught us to imitate Him who came "not to be served, but to serve." He invited us to follow Him who had such special care for the least of his sisters and brothers.

Our Lady of Peace has heard that call to imitate and follow. In so many ways we try our best to feed the hungry, protect the unborn, comfort the ill and elderly and minister to those in prison. This is not to blow our own horn, but to thank God for allowing us to come to know Jesus through those whom we serve.

Would you like to touch the face of Jesus? Would you like to comfort or clothe Him? The links on the right hand side of this page offer a few ways that you can meet him and see his face in the faces of your brothers and sisters.
