On Sundays, members of Sant’Egidio, following the example of the Good Samaritan, visit the homeless and migrants in the streets. While offering food, warm drinks, and items to meet basic needs, the most important element is an openness and desire for relationship and friendship. These are exceptional in the rush of the city, which often erases the most vulnerable, and are concrete signs of a coexistence of solidarity.
Where: Meet in the parish office
