It In light of the solemn celebration in India, I would like to recall, with is also a means of making health care more humane. joy and admiration, the figure of Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta – a model of charity who made visible God’s love for the poor and sick. As A spirit of generosity ought especially to inspire Catholic healthcare I noted at her canonization, “Mother Teresa, in all aspects of her life, institutions, whether in the more developed or the poorer areas of our was a generous dispenser of divine mercy, making herself available world, since they carry out their activity in the light of the Gospel. for everyone through her welcome and defence of human life, of those Catholic facilities are called to give an example of self-giving, generosity unborn and those abandoned and discarded… She bowed down before and solidarity in response to the mentality of profit at any price, of those who were spent, left to die on the side of the road, seeing in giving for the sake of getting, and of exploitation over concern for them their God-given dignity; she made her voice heard before the people. powers of this world, so that they might recognize their guilt for the crime – the crimes! – of poverty they created.

Catholic healthcare institutions must not fall into the trap for their poverty and suffering. Her mission to the urban and existential of simply running a business; they must be concerned with personal peripheries remains for us today an eloquent witness to God’s care more than profit. We know that health is relational, dependent closeness to the poorest of the poor” (Homily, 4 September 2016). on interaction with others, and requiring trust, friendship and solidarity. It is a treasure that can be enjoyed fully only when it is shared. The joy Saint Mother Teresa helps us understand that our only criterion of of generous giving is a barometer of the health of a Christian. action must be selfless love for every human being, without distinction of language, culture, ethnicity or religion. Her example continues to I entrust all of you to Mary, Salus Infirmorum. May she help us to guide us by opening up horizons of joy and hope for all those in need share the gifts we have received in the spirit of dialogue and mutual of understanding and tender love, and especially for those who suffer. acceptance, to live as brothers and sisters attentive to each other’s Generosity inspires and sustains the work of the many volunteers who needs, to give from a generous heart, and to learn the joy of selfless are so important in health care and who eloquently embody the service to others.
