They Are Our Future, And We Must

Lord, Help Us To Live The Virtue Of Generosity, To Love Without Limits.

Today, We Need A Church Capable Of Walking At People's Side, Of Doing More Than Simply Listening To Them.... At Times We Lose People Because They Don't Understand What We Are Saying, Because We Have Forgotten The Language Of Simplicity And Import An Intellectualism Foreign To Our People.... We Cannot Keep Ourselves Shut Up In Parishes, In Our Communities, When So Many People Are Waiting For The Gospel.

We Cannot Take A Step In Our Christian Life Without The Help Of The Lord, Because We Are Weak.

I Want To Express My Closeness To The People Of The Philippines Who Have Been Struck By A Strong Earthquake, And I Invite You To Pray For That Dear Nation, Which In Recent Days Has Suffered Different Calamities.

We Learn Many Virtues In Our Christian Families. Above All, We Learn To Love, Asking Nothing In Return.
