Do not be afraid of what God asks of you! It is worth saying 'yes' to God. In him we find joy.

In the Western Church to which I belong, priests cannot be married as in the Byzantine, Ukrainian, Russian or Greek Catholic Churches. In those Churches, the priests can be married, but the bishops have to be celibate. They are very good priests.

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

Love makes us similar, it creates equality, it breaks down walls and eliminates distances. God did this with us.

The thing the Church needs most today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful.

Love is more powerful, love gives life, love makes hope blossom in the wilderness.

The life of a family is filled with beautiful moments: rest, meals together, walks in the park or the countryside, visits to grandparents or to a sick person... But if love is missing, joy is missing, nothing is fun. Jesus gives always gives us that love: he is its endless source. In the sacrament he gives us his word and he gives us the bread of life, so that our joy may be complete.
