Your sins are great? Just tell the Lord: Forgive me, help me to get up again, change my heart!

And now I would like to give the blessing, but first - first I ask a favor of you: before the Bishop blesses his people, I ask you to pray to the Lord that he will bless me: the prayer of the people asking the blessing for their Bishop.

Remembrance saves a people's soul from whatever or whoever would attempt to dominate it or use it for their interests.

When money, instead of man, is at the center of the system, when money becomes an idol, men and women are reduced to simple instruments of a social and economic system, which is characterized, better yet dominated, by profound inequalities.

Prayer is all-powerful. Let us use it to bring peace to the Middle East and peace to the world.

But you too, help one another: help one another always. One another. In this way, by helping one another, we will do some good.
