![β¨ "Embracing the Stranger" β¨
In a society that teaches us to be wary of strangers, Jesus's message is clear: we are to love and care for the stranger. It's time to confront our biases and learn how to extend hospitality and grace to those who need it most.
"For I was a stranger and you welcomed me." - Matthew 25:35
