All About Kate
Poem from No Hands but Ours Website
Lord Christ,
You have no body on earth but ours,
No hands but ours,
No feet but ours.
Ours are the eyes through
which compassion must
look out on the world.
Ours are the feet by which you
may still go about doing good.
Ours are the hands with which
You bless people now.
Bless our minds and bodies,
That we may be a blessing to others.
St. Theresa of Avila
