Lockdown Ministry in Peru
I never knew living in solidarity with the poor meant being locked away from them for weeks!

However St. Paul did not sit idle during his confinement.

And He still called you.” She encouraged me to sit with that, not as a reason to either stay or go, but rather to really give everything back to the Lord and seek Him in each situation.
