are an unconditional love of all humans
and an uncompromising commitment to caring for all who are sick, infirm, or troubled -
as expressed in the biblical story of the Good Samaritan.

Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
"Christ the Lord is risen to-day,"
Sons of men and angels say.
Raise your joys and triumphs high;
Sing, ye heavens, and earth reply.
