Prayer creates the opportunity for us to evaluate our actions by the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and work toward an attitude of detachment from self-interest in making decisions, and trying to enter into the mind and intentions of Jesus. With a confidence born of our Catholic values and an attitude tempered by humility, we are prepared to create initiatives that help us battle and deal with life's difficulties. We can find peace, secure in our faith that God reaches out to all people at all times. Empowered by the grace of God, we can and must stand and let our voices be heard. We must never take for granted wars; poverty; famines; injustices; margination of ethnic, racial, linguistic, or economic groups; or other unnecessary sufferings or deprivations. We must never acknowledge a separation of politics and economics from religious values and judgments. In the spirit of Ignatius of Loyola, with courtesy, courage, endurance and self-control, we embrace a vigorous, optimistic, world-affirming spirituality, committed to God's service.
