Do not let that hope die! Stake your lives on it! We are not the sum of our weaknesses and failures; we are the sum of the Father's love for us and our real capacity to become the image of his Son.

We are the people of life, because God, in His unconditional love, has given us the Gospel of Life, and we are called to act accordingly.
