Today, the Memorial of Our Lady of Lourdes, the Church observes the 22nd World Day of the Sick. The theme for this year is Faith and charity: “We too must give our lives for the brethren.” World Day of the Sick is a time, in the words of Pope Benedict XVI, to “to reflect upon the mystery of suffering and above all to make our communities and civil society more sensitive to our sick brothers and sisters.”
