We must continue to commit ourselves to love all our brothers and sisters with whom we share the earth. And we must do so by reminding ourselves and them of the truth that encompasses every human person. In this case, it is that, as part of God’s plan, we are gifted in the identity given each of us by God at birth as being male or female. Because, as the Book of Genesis tells us, “God has looked on all that He made and saw that it was good” (Gn 1:31) Viviendo la Verdad de Nuestra Creación: Letter ES CATECHIST BRUNCH - 8/25/24
