The Church's challenge is staying close to the people, close to the people of the United States, not being a detached Church from the people but close to them, close, close, and this is something that the Church in the United States has understood and understood well.

Our mission as Christians is to conform ourselves evermore to Jesus as the model of our lives.

To change the world we must be good to those who cannot repay us.

To be friends with God means to pray with simplicity, like children talking to their parents.

Like the Good Samaritan, may we not be ashamed of touching the wounds of those who suffer, but try to heal them with concrete acts of love.

The imposition of anomalous models and lifestyles are alien to people's identity and, in the end, are irresponsible.

God loves us. May we discover the beauty of loving and being loved.
