Even if the financial crisis is spread throughout the world, this is no time for discouragement, says the leader of Caritas Internationalis.
Cardinal Oscar RodrÃguez Maradiaga affirmed this at a conference this week in Mexico, sponsored by the Instituto Mexicana de Doctrina Social Cristiana (Mexican Institute of Christian Social Doctrine).
“The crisis is generalized but we must not be discouraged,” the Honduran cardinal affirmed. “The Church isn’t a dead organization and she responds in times of crisis. This time of scarcity is an occasion for growth, and solidarity is the solution.”
Cardinal RodrÃguez Maradiaga called the Incarnation a manifestation of solidarity. And, he said, the Christian should never take an attitude of “let he who can save himself.” Instead the faithful must hear Christ’s call to solidarity.
