On the first day of the Nativity Fast, Sunday, November 15, 2020, Patriarch Daniel explained that we should use his fasting season as a time for preparing our souls to become a luminous cave in which Christ the Lord will be mystically born.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“To the merciful love of God Who sent His only Son in the world to save the world, let us respond with merciful love, by aiding the sick, the poor, the elderly, the lonely, the helpless,” said the Patriarch of Romania.<\/p>\n

This aspect is illustrated by the Parable of the Good Samaritan, His Beatitude noted.<\/p>\n

“This is how we will feel the joy of the presence of the merciful love of Christ in our lives and become the hands of His merciful love,” the Patriarch said.<\/p>\n

This year, the Sunday of the Good Samaritan coincides with the first day of the Nativity Fast.<\/p>\n
