    Hands of Christ

Recognition Awards

Christ has no body on earth but yours,

no hands but yours, no feet but yours,

Yours are the eyes through which Christ’s

compassion for the world is to look out;

Yours are the feet with which

He is to go about doing good;

And yours are the hands with which

He is to bless us now.

                                    - St. Teresa of Avila
