All of us must care for life, cherish life, with tenderness, warmth...to give life is to open (our) heart, and to care for life is to (give oneself) in tenderness and warmth for others, to have concern in my heart for others. Caring for life from the beginning to the end. What a simple thing, what a beautiful thing..So, go forth and don't be discouraged. Care for life. It's worth it.

Advent increases our hope, a hope which does not disappoint. The Lord never lets us down.

May we learn to say “thank you” to God and to one another. We teach children to do it, and then we forget to do it ourselves!

An evangelizer must never look like someone who has just come back from a funeral.

Peace is the language we must speak.

Environmental degradation is one of the biggest challenges we have. I think a question that we're not asking ourselves is: 'Isn't humanity committing suicide with this indiscriminate and tyrannical use of nature?'

Let the Church always be a place of mercy and hope, where everyone is welcomed, loved and forgiven.
