The Church Is A Mother, Not An

One Form Of Prayer Moves Us Particularly To Take Up The Task Of Evangelization And To Seek The Good Of Others: It Is The Prayer Of Intercession. Let Us Peer For A Moment Into The Heart Of Saint Paul, To See What His Prayer Was Like. It Was Full Of People: "...i Constantly Pray With You In Every One Of My Prayers For All Of You... Because I Hold You In My Heart" (phil 1:4, 7). Here We See That Intercessory Prayer Does Not Divert Us From True Contemplation, Since Authentic Contemplation Always Has A Place For Others.

Today Saint Paul Has Told Us That In Christ We Have Become God’s Adopted Children, Brothers And Sisters In Christ. This Is Who We Are. This Is Our Identity.

Let Christ Turn Your Natural Optimism Into Christian Hope, Your Energy Into Moral Virtue, Your Good Will Into Genuine Self-sacrificin G Love! This Is The Path You Are Called To Take. This Is The Path To Overcoming All That Threatens Hope, Virtue And Love In Your Lives And In Your Culture. In This Way Your Youth Will Be A Gift To Jesus And To The World.

Where We Find Hate And Darkness, May We Bring Love And Hope, In Order To Give A More Human Face To Society.

We Must Not Be Afraid Of Solidarity; Rather Let Us Make All We Have And Are Available To God.
