Today is my anniversary of ordination to the priesthood. Please pray for me and all priests.

Who am I to judge a gay person?

If evil is contagious, so is good:therefore, we must allow good to abound in us, more and more;let us be infected by goodness, and let us spread the good contagion.

The whole of salvation history is the story of God looking for us: he offers us love and welcomes us with tenderness.

Let us never give in to pessimism, to that bitterness that the devil offers us every day. Do not give in to pessimism and discouragement. We have the firm certainty that the Holy Spirit gives the Church with His mighty breath, the courage to persevere and also to seek new methods of evangelization, to bring the Gospel to the ends of the earth.

Say no to an ephemeral, superficial and throwaway culture, a culture that assumes that you are incapable of taking on responsibility and facing the great challenges of life!

Not to share one’s goods with the poor is to rob them and to deprive them of life. It is not our goods that we possess, but theirs.
