In This Year Of Faith, Let Us

Obeying God Is Listening To God, Having An Open Heart To Follow The Path That God Points Out To Us.

From The Peak Of Chimborazo (volcano) To The Pacific Coast, From The Amazon Rainforest To The Galapagos Islands, May You Never Lose The Ability To Thank God For What He Has Done And Is Doing For You, May You Never Lose The Ability To Protect What Is Small And Simple, To Care For Your Children And Your Elderly, To Have Confidence In The Young, And To Be Constantly Struck By The Nobility Of Your People And The Singular Beauty Of Your Country.

May We Always Care For Our Children, Not Counting The Cost, So That They May Never Believe Themselves To Be Mistakes, But Always Know Their Infinite Worth.

We Need To Be Creative With Young People. If They Have No Opportunities, They Will Get Into Drugs And Be Vulnerable To Suicide.

For Us Christians, Love Of Neighbour Springs From Love Of God; And It Is Its Most Limpid Expression. Here One Tries To Love One's Neighbour, But Also To Allow Oneself To Be Loved By One's Neighbour. These Two Attitudes Go Together, One Cannot Be Exercised Without The Other. Printed On The Letterhead Of The Missionaries Of Charity Are These Words Of Jesus: "as You Did It To One Of The Least Of These My Brethren, You Did It To Me". Loving God In Our Brethren And Loving Our Brethren In God.
