Today is the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. Let us work and pray.

I will be praying with my best wishes that the Orthodox move ahead because they are brothers and their bishops are bishops like us.

Pay attention, my young friends: to go against the current; this is good for the heart, but we need courage to swim against the tide. ... We Christians were not chosen by the Lord for little things; push onwards toward the highest principles. Stake your lives on noble ideals, my dear young people!

We see that there are two worms that eat the fabric of the Church, weakening Her. Rivalry and vainglory go against this harmony, this agreement.

They are our future, and we must have a dialogue. This dialogue between the past and the future is important. Because of this I underline so much the relationship between the youth and grandparents. They must speak with.

Total openness to serving others is our hallmark, it alone is our title of honour!

The great challenge facing us today is to learn once again how to talk to one another, not simply how to generate and consume information.
