In the crisis we are facing, the importance of solidarity, as a vital component of Alay Kapwa Spirituality, in evangelizing the people to practice their faith through care and concern for others is manifested. This is the true Christian way of life. We are Christians not just because we are praying together but because we are helping one another. When the pandemic ends, we can be assured that Alay Kapwa Spirituality is already animated in the lives of the people and when we face situations where solidarity seems to be needed, we will no longer wait for the extreme hardships of the poor to be manifested before we help them.
在我们所面临的这场危机中，团结的重要性体现了出来，它是“alay kapwa”灵修的一个重要组成部分，通过关心和关爱他人，使人们能够实践信仰。这才是真正的基督教生活方式。我们是基督徒，不只是因为我们一起祈祷，更是因为我们互相帮助。当疫情结束后，我们可以确信，“alay kapwa”精神已经在人民的生活中活跃起来，而当我们面临需要团结的时候，我们将不再等待穷人的极端困境显现出来才去帮助他们。
