We are all children of the same Father

Medicine, assistance and accompanying the sick require, not only the necessary professional qualifications, but also, and above all, a novel way of relating among brothers and sisters, all of whom are children of the same Father, said Cardinal Fernando Vérgez Alzaga, President emeritus of the Governorate of Vatican City State, during a Eucharistic concelebration to mark the liturgical memorial of Saint John of God. The Holy Mass was celebrated on Thursday morning, 6 March, in the Palace of the Governorate’s Church of Mary, Mother of the Family, ahead of the official date of the liturgical memorial which falls on 8 March, to allow employees to participate.
