A Nation That Destroys Its Own People

Believers Know That The Presence Of Evil Is Always Accompanied By The Presence Of Good, By Grace... Where Evil Grows, There The Hope For Good Also Grows... In The Love That Pours Forth From The Heart Of Christ, We Find Hope For The Future Of The World. Christ Has Redeemed The World: "by His Wounds We Are Healed." (isaiah 53:5)

Like So Many Pilgrims Before Us, We Kneel In Wonder And Adoration Before The Ineffable Mystery Which. Was Accomplished Here... In This Child - The Son Who Is Given To Us - We Find Rest For Our Souls And The True Bread That Never Fails - The Eucharistic Bread Foreshadowed Even In The Name Of This Town: Bethlehem, The House Of Bread. God Lies Hidden In The Child; Divinity Lies Hidden In The Bread Of Life

If The Aim Is Globalization Without Marginalization, We Can No Longer Tolerate A World In Which There Live Side By Side The Immensely Rich And The Miserably Poor, The Have-nots Deprived Even Of Essentials And People Who Thoughtlessly Waste What Others So Desperately Need. Such Countries Are An Affront To The Dignity Of The Human Person. He Further Said, Ethics Demand That Systems Be Attuned To The Needs Of Man, And Not That Man Be Sacrificed For The Sake Of The System.

Be Demanding Of The World Around You; Be Demanding First Of All With Yourselves. Be Children Of God; Take Pride In It!

Young Friends, Do Not Hesitate To Follow The Example Of Pedro, Who 'pleased God And Was Loved By Him' And Who, Having Come To Perfection In So Short A Time, Lived A Full Life.
