St. Stephen of Hungary
August 16
FOCAL POINT:
“Hospitality for guests is an important value and is a way of giving witness to Christian community living. This hospitality will always be carried out in a spirit of cordiality and at the same time in a spirit of prudence and sensitivity to the needs of the religious, in order to maintain a degree of silence and privacy allowing for areas strictly reserved for religious.” (Con. 141)
