Bearing Fruit for the Lord

As a part of our Lenten journey here at Holy Family Residence, we are trying to embrace Pope Benedict XVI’s Lenten message, “Believing in Charity Calls Forth Charity,” by making a special effort to perform acts of charity. As a way to recognize these good works, we have asked our Residents and staff to anonymously pin a piece of the paper fruit we have provided to the painting of a barren tree located outside of our chapel. Our hope is that as each act is performed, the love of Jesus will grow even stronger in all who live and work here, since, as Pope Benedict stated: “Faith without works is like a tree without fruit!” By Easter we pray that our tree will be full, bountiful, and an inspiration to all to keep bearing fruit for the Lord.
