800-meters from the birthplace of Jesus one special door is always open to the poor and destitute expectant mothers. Last week our pilgrimage group visited Holy Family Hospital run by the Order of Malta and the adjacent Crèche run by the Daughters of Charity.
Praise The Lord for the love the sisters and lay-staff provide for these orphans.
Today: ask Jesus how you can make a difference in the life of His little children.
