2/26/2014: Yesterday, February 25, brought Sister Theresita Donach, CSFN to visit our freshman religion classes and speak of her experience with a charity reaching out to our brothers and sisters in Haiti who lack basic medical care. Visit Forward in Health for more information. Though the students did not have much time to discuss the information presented, they responded first to the presentation in written reflections. Some quotes are shared here, as we continue to study Catholic Social Teaching.
-
"What I learned yesterday really challenges me that much more because I now realize how bad people actually have it. When you learn how horrible these peoples lives are you can't even imagine being in their position and you feel bad for them. You really want to help make [their] lives just a little bit more."
-
"This video really opened my eyes and made me realize how hard it is for these people. They live close to the [United] States yet they are so far off. We can't just forget about them. They are our neighbors. Our duty as Catholics is to treat our neighbors as ourselves. We need to live that out, not just say it."
-
"What I heard about all the poverty and hunger challenges me to help out in the world and make a difference. This challenges me to donate my time, energy and money. From what I heard I am called to do some form of help."
-
"This speaker has called us all to appreciate everything we have, but also to give to the need and less fortunate. If all of society did this the world would be better off and stronger."
-
"Hearing these things challenges me to want to be more grateful for what I have and try to join programs like Feed My Starving Children. Also, this challenges me to be more aware of what's going on in the world."
-
"It makes me wanna do what those people in the video did, go and give medical care to those poor, suffering kids. I want to see the joy and relief of being happy and healthy."
-
"I would like to be able to change lives and make people happy just like Sister did. Making others happy makes me happy."
-
"Every little thing we do in the world can have a big cause in someones life even if it doesn't in ours."
