Margaret Anna Friday

Most Fridays I will share a quote from the from the founder of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace, Margaret Anna Cusack (known in religion as Mother Francis Clare, published as M.F. Cusack).  Today's installment:

We are, then, put face to face with the great fact of Poverty, we are put face to face with the certain consequences of the continuance of such a condition of things, and if we have one spark of humanity we are put face to face with the question, What can we do personally and individually to lessen poverty, if we cannot abolish it?~The Question of Today, Anti-Poverty & Progress
