7/13/2025 — Our Neighbors Need Us to See Them as Neighbors
In this homily, Fr. Edward Looney reflects on the Parable of the Good Samaritan through the lens of a recent movie he watched on Netflix called Straw.
He challenges us to recognize the people around us as our neighbors—especially those we might overlook or avoid—and to respond with compassion and kindness.
When we choose to see and serve others, we don’t just transform their lives… we allow God to transform ours.
🙏 Who is your neighbor today? And how will you love them?
