Today we commemorate "World Day of the Sick – 11 February".
Inspired by the parable of the "Good Samaritan", this day reminds us that love is never distant or passive. It calls us to "see, to stop, and to act"for those who are ill, frail, or lonely. We are invited to become true neighbours by offering compassion, dignity, and hope through our presence and service.
As we reflect, we honour:
🤍 our patients and families carrying the burden of illness
🤍 the dedicated health workers and caregivers who accompany them
🤍 our communities that continue to show solidarity and mercy
May we always recognise the person within the patient and be instruments of healing through kindness, respect, and genuine care.
