The Jan. 8 article “Trudeau’s resignation might be too late for charities’ sake” was excellent.
The work of charitable organizations is so important in helping to create a better society for all. They are crucial in addressing societal challenges, advocating for marginalized communities, and driving positive change. The churches are doing an amazing job of working together with other non-profit organizations.
I have volunteered with Langley Township on two volunteer committees: the Social Sustainability Task Force and the Senior Advisory Group. The role of the Church was respected by the township and people who work with the charities. The Langley Meals on Wheels in Aldergrove relies on non-profit charities, which include the churches.

The saying “hate the sin but not the sinner” rings true in the case of Father Anthony Ho’s Jan. 8 article “St. Paul’s call to purge sin for the health of the Church.”
When Jesus said to love your enemy, he did not mean that we should do what they are doing. Inspiring others to see Christ present in our lives is our best shield when we are in an ungodly situation or surrounded by people who are far from God. Sometimes, they just need to see Christ in us to enkindle their longing for God.
Let us keep the light of Christ ever present in us no matter where we are. After all, fraternal correction is one of the spiritual works of mercy.
