Quote for the month of August


"We must seek the healing of the marred identity of the poor. We must treat them as valuable human beings, made in the image of God, loved by God. We must listen to them as if they have something to contribute, because they do. They simply do not appreciate how much they know. We must encourage the belief that God is for them and that God has given everyone something to contribute."
