Which virtue denotes social charity and friendship among people?

• A. Rosary
• B. Ordinary Time
• C. Solidarity
• D. Easter Season

Answer: (C)

Solidarity is the virtue of social charity and friendship among people, recognizing that we are all part of one human family and share responsibility for one another. It goes beyond personal kindness to a commitment to the common good, standing with others in their joys and sufferings, and actively working to support the vulnerable and build just communities. This virtue inspires practical acts of helping neighbors, advocating for fair treatment, and creating social bonds rooted in mutual respect and justice.

The other options point to things that are not virtues about social relationships: the Rosary is a devotional prayer, Ordinary Time is a period in the liturgical year focused on growth in faith, and the Easter Season is a liturgical season celebrating the Resurrection. Solidarity uniquely captures the idea of social charity and friendship among people.
