“As the world commemorates the 33rd World Day of the Sick, the message of hope and resilience resounds deeply within the hearts of Christians and communities around the globe. This year’s celebration, which falls within the Jubilee Year 2025, is themed “Hope does not disappoint,” drawing inspiration from the words of Saint Paul in Romans 5:5″ Pope Francis.

During a poignant mass held at Holy Innocents Children’s Hospital, Rev. Father Ronald Musinguzi who is the hospital chaplain in comomeration of the Word Day of the Sick, delivered an inspiring homily that emphasized the importance of maintaining hope in the face of suffering. He reminded congregants that hope, rooted in faith, strengthens us during times of trial and is a source of solace and courage for both the sick and their caregivers.

Reflecting on the three ways God remains close to those who suffer—through encounter, gift, and sharing Father Musinguzi highlighted the transformative power of suffering as an opportunity for spiritual growth and deepening one’s relationship with God. He encouraged the faithful to recognize moments of illness as occasions to encounter the Lord and experience His compassionate presence.

Father Musinguzi also called upon Christians to prioritize their health and well-being by adopting healthier lifestyles, avoiding habits such as excessive drinking and smoking, and steering clear of substandard processed foods. He emphasized that prayer should be a constant in their lives, not only in times of illness but as a daily practice.

The theme of this year’s World Day of the Sick coincides with the feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, a significant pilgrimage site in France where many sick individuals seek healing. The day was first established by Pope John Paul II in 1992 as a special time for the global community to join in prayer for the sick and their caregivers.

As the faithful gathered to pray and support one another, Father Musinguzi’s message of hope served as a beacon of light, reminding everyone that in moments of suffering, they are never alone. With God’s grace and the strength of their community, they can face life’s challenges with renewed faith and hope.
