Bishop of Asunción delivers homily

The Bishop of Asunción spoke about building fraternity during the fourth day of the novena for Our Lady of Mercy in Lambaré.

During his homily, the bishop explained that true fraternity requires treating others as brothers and sisters rather than just feeling affection for them. He noted that Jesus established the standard for this love by approaching those who suffer, listening to the marginalized, and defending human dignity.

The bishop stated that giving one's life for others can be practiced daily through small actions. He suggested that people can live out this commandment by listening to those in need, caring for the sick, accompanying the elderly, educating children with patience, helping families, forgiving offenses, or sharing food.
