Hope is often found in the simple yet powerful presence of another. The young woman’s journey from despair to healing reminds us that even in our darkest moments, there is someone waiting for us—both a friend and Christ himself. Walking alongside those who suffer, without judgment or solutions, but with love and faith, can be the difference between despair and transformation. We, too, are called to be that hope for others.

Ann’s journey from the streets to healing is a testament to the transforming power of God’s grace. Her struggles did not define her; rather, they shaped her into someone who now helps others. Like the disciples at the Transfiguration, she has seen Christ’s glory, even in her darkest moments. Her story reminds us that faith does not erase our past but gives us the strength to move forward, trusting in God’s love and redemption.

True faith is not lived in comfort but in the willingness to stand for what is right, even when it costs us. The principal’s question—"Was there nothing worth fighting for?"—challenges us to examine our own lives. Do we risk wounds for justice and love, or do we seek safety? Jesus entered into our loneliness to offer us connection. We are called to do the same for others, walking beside them with love and compassion.
