Together in Brotherly Love


'When we are linked by the power of prayer, we, as it were, hold each other's hand as we walk side by side along a slippery path; and thus by the bounteous disposition of charity, it comes about that the harder one leans on the other, the more firmly we are riveted together in brotherly love.'

Pope Gregory the Great
