Let us always pray for one another.

If money and material things become the center of our lives, they seize us and make us slaves.

When we don't preach the LORD, we preach the Devil, and when we preach worldliness, we preach the Devil

Lord, help us to recognize you in the sick, poor and suffering.

This is important: to get to know people, listen, expand the circle of ideas. The world is crisscrossed by roads that come closer together and move apart, but the important thing is that they lead towards the Good.

Let us ask Mary to help us respond to violence, to conflict and to war, with the power of dialogue, reconciliation and love. She is our mother: may she help us to find peace; all of us are her children!

Without mercy, we have little chance nowadays of becoming part of a world of 'wounded' persons in need of understanding, forgiveness, love.
