"The One Who Treated Him Mercy..."
Jesus narrates the familiar story of compassion in the Parable of the Good Samaritan. In this story, a traveler falls victim to robbers who leave him wounded and abandoned on the roadside. Both a priest and a Levite, esteemed figures in society, pass by but ignore the injured man, prioritizing ritual purity over aiding him. Unexpectedly, a Samaritan, traditionally scorned by Jews, encounters the wounded traveler. Displaying remarkable empathy, the Samaritan tends to the man’s wounds, provides immediate care, and ensures ongoing support by taking him to an inn, covering expenses for his recovery.
The central figures represent distinct responses to human suffering. The priest and Levite, symbolic of religious authority, neglect their moral duty, whereas the Samaritan, considered an outsider, embodies selfless compassion.
Jesus' parable presents its universal message: genuine love and compassion know no boundaries. God's message is clear. We cannot separate loving God and loving our neighbor. His command points to the human face of our neighbor in need. There are so many ways to help those in need. It doesn't always mean giving money. We can also give our attention, our time, our forgiveness, our love. We should always treat others with mercy. That is being a good neighbor.
An Arab saying reminds us, "To have a good neighbor, you must be one."

KEEPING OUR PARISH CLEAN: A Call to Action from our Ecology Committee (EC)
Keeping Our Parish Clean:
A Call to Action from our EC
**After receiving reports on rodent sighting in the Parish Hall**
As we come together in fellowship, it’s important that we also take responsibility for maintaining the cleanliness of our church environment. After each event, ESPECIALLY those involving food, please ensure that all trash—whether it be compost, recycling, or regular waste—is disposed of properly. Trash and compost bags must be tied securely and placed in the designated dumpsters before leaving.
By keeping our spaces clean and free from waste, we not only protect the health of our community by preventing pests, but we also avoid costly clean-up fees. Let’s all do our part to preserve the beauty and safety of our parish for everyone.
Be on the lookout for the Ecology Committee's (EC) waste management tutorials, coming soon!
Stop by their table to sign up for more information during this weekend's ministry fair.
Thank you for your cooperation!
