"One month ago, Elmo, the little red Muppet from the children's television series Sesame Street, checked in on everyone. 'Elmo is just checking in! How is everybody doing?” was posted on the Sesame Street character's X account (formerly known as Twitter). The post was seen by millions of people and became the talk of the internet. It was viewed over 200 million times, liked over 165,000 times, and received more than 20,000 comments as of last week. . . .
"The original tweet and the overwhelming reaction to the question are a reminder that we all need to check-in on one another. Visits, phone calls, text messages, emails, and greeting cards can all help us to stay connected and carry one another's burdens (Galatians 6:2). . . ."
In a recent commentary, Father Jack Kolodziej, OSFS, reflected on the importance of checking in with our family, friends, and neighbors.
