Reflection is the see, judge, act process held in prayer. We need to step back and “see” our sisters and brothers “on the move,” understand their reality through the Word of God and Catholic Social teachings, and make a faithful judgement on how to act for their well-being. We will celebrate our successes and failures and begin anew.
