“To utter the name Jesus is to make a statement of faith as well as to give voice to a prayer. Jesus is our salvation, the One sent to redeem us, to keep us from falling away from the God who created us for a meaningful life. In the human life of Jesus, God shares our place, in the midst of our very brokenness, he offers us grace—the grace of unconditional love, forgiveness for our faults, the ability to see and embrace what truly matters. And what matters is a life of communion with God and others, a life of care; of collaboration, and loving service.”
