Cardinal Blase Cupich visited with inmates at the Cook County Jail and led a special mass there on Christmas Day.
The mass and visit was meant to give inmates hope and faith during the holiday season, even as they are locked up and away from their families.
The cardinal assured each inmate they are never too small or unimportant to make a difference.
“It is an opportunity to make sure that we widen the circle of human life and have more room at the table,” he said.
Each inmate had the chance to receive communion as Cardinal Cupich spoke about making small changes to better yourself and the world.
