Welcoming the Stranger: Giving Recognition and Showing Hospitality

Hospitality most fittingly captures the ways and welfare of the pilgrim peoples. In the act of sharing we achieve freedom from the strangling and suffocating attachment to worldly goods.

In offering hospitality to strangers we affirm we are merely fellow pilgrims en route to the heavenly city of God.
