Europe has discarded its children. A bit triumphantly. I remember that when I was studying in one country the clinics that did abortions then prepared everything to send it to cosmetic factories. Makeup made with the blood of innocents. And this was something to brag about, because it was progressive.

Let us ask Mary to help us fix our eyes intently on Jesus, to follow him always, even when this is demanding.

Let's return to our first love, in order to receive the fire which Jesus has kindled in the world and to bring that fire to all people, to the very ends of the earth.

Consumerism has accustomed us to waste. But throwing food away is like stealing it from the poor and hungry.

I would like especially to mention you, the women, wives and mothers of Paraguay, who at great cost and sacrifice were able to lift up a country defeated, devastated and laid low by an abominable war. God bless your perseverance, God bless and encourage your faith, God bless the women of Paraguay, the most glorious women of America.

May the Lord bless the family and strengthen it in this moment of crisis

Jesus fought Satan in 'hand to hand combat' . . . 'you need to protect this victory.'
