The greatest evil in the world

Many today are starving for ordinary bread.
But there is another kind of hunger -
The hunger to be wanted, to be loved, to be recognised.
Nakedness is not just the want of clothes,
But also the loss of dignity, purity and self respect.
And homelessness is not just the loss of a house;
There is the homelessness of being rejected,
Of being unwanted in a throwaway society.
The biggest disease in the world today
Is the feeling of being unwanted and uncared for.
The greatness evil in the world is the lack of love,
The terrible indifference towards one’s neighbour

Mother Teresa

The Secret of Living

The secret of living is learning to pray –

It’s asking our Father for strength for the day!

It’s trusting completely that His boundless grace

Will overcome care and each problem we face!

It’s walking by Faith every mile that we plod,

And knowing our prayers bring us closer to God!

“Whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing,

you shall receive.”

- Matthew 21:22


Salvation is open to all people, but God’s economy is not always the same as ours
