Work for the Common Good • Mon.05.04.26

Service is the way we care for our shared home. When we do it with love, we do it for God.

Every act of service we perform, no matter how small, is a way for us to spread God’s kingdom. When we work for the good of our community, we are working for Christ.

We find it easier to serve when we recognize Jesus hidden in our neighbor—especially in those of us who seem the most overlooked.

Today, let’s do one small act for our community, knowing that what we do for each other, we do for Him.

Based on the Word of Life, October 1982, by Chiara Lubich, Servant of God.

✝️ Our Prayer for Service

Father, help us to see Christ in everyone we meet today. May our work be an offering of love for our common good. Amen.

A prayer a day, keeps the soul from drifting away
