Community is the fruit of our capacity to make the interests of others more important than our own.

Reading with children is an enormous gift to them. It's a great honor to invite children to read with adults.

Community life is not easy for somebody like me, who is used to living by himself and doing what he wants. It's a demanding life, and you quickly get in touch with your own handicaps and weaknesses.

The most important thing I've come to believe in is that people with mental handicaps have a unique mission to bring God's blessing to the World.

Waiting time is not wasting time. Waiting patiently in expectation is the foundation of the spiritual life.

When we break bread and give it to each other, fear vanishes and God becomes very close.

When you are still young and not yet adult, you want to hold everything in your own hands, but if you have your hands open toward prayer, you are able to stretch out your arms and let yourself be led without knowing where. You know only the freedom which God's breath has brought you will lead to new life, even if the cross is the only sign of it you can see.
