Faith and Values: Neighbors coming together during pandemic created long-term trust, community

In all the world religions, we are told that caring for others is like caring for ourselves. From Hinduism comes “Wish for others what you yourself long for”; Islam says, “None of you truly believes until he wishes for his brother what he wishes for himself”; “Love thy neighbor as thyself” is found in Leviticus and confirmed by Jesus. In the Baha’i faith we learn, “Blessed is he who preferreth his brother before himself.”
