🟢 "We have received a garden from the Creator, let us not leave a desert for our children." The #Pallottine family & @WeAreAMission join hands with the Holy Father & @VaticanIHD in protecting our common home. Our best wishes for #LaudatoSiWeek! 🌍
In life, the worst anxiety, arises from the sensation of not being able to cope. We need Jesus’ help. And so we can say to Him: “Jesus, I believe you are beside me and that you are listening to me. I bring to you my troubles. I have faith in you and I entrust myself to you”.
"The goal of this educational investment is to ensure that everyone has access to a quality education consonant with the dignity of the human person, & our common vocation to fraternity" @Pontifex

I am praying for the United States of America, shaken by the recent attack on Congress. I pray for those who lost their life. Violence is always self-destructive. I urge everyone to promote a culture of encounter and of care to construct the common good.

May Christmas be an opportunity for all of us to rediscover the family as a cradle of life and faith, a place of acceptance and love, dialogue, forgiveness, fraternal solidarity and shared joy, a source of peace for all humanity.
"In the end, what we are seeking is the glory of the Father; & if we wish to commit ourselves perseveringly, we need to leave behind every other motivation. This is our ultimate reason behind all we do" @Pontifex
Thank you, Your Eminence, @CardinalNapier!

Instead of complaining in these difficult times about what the pandemic prevents us from doing, let us do something for someone who has less: not the umpteenth gift for ourselves and our friends, but for a person in need whom no-one thinks of! #Angelus
"Let us look around us, let us look especially at those who are in need: the brother who suffers, wherever he may be, is one of us. He is Jesus in the manger: the one who suffers is Jesus" (Pope Francis) https://t.co/oN4vj0EBNp
150 years after the proclamation of St Joseph as Patron of the Catholic Church, I would like to share some personal reflections on this extraordinary figure, so close to our own human experience.

So often today man does not know what is within him, in the depths of his mind and heart.... Therefore, let Christ speak to man. He alone has words of life, of eternal life. #StJohnPaulII
St #JohnPaulII and his passion for life and fascination with the mystery of God, of the world and of humankind was an extraordinary gift of God to the Church. Let us remember his faith: may it be an example to lives as witnesses today.
The mission, the ‘Church on the move’, is not a programme to be carried out by sheer force of will. It is Christ who makes the Church go out of herself. In the mission of evangelization, you move because the Holy Spirit pushes you, and carries you. #WorldMissionDay
“The mission, the Church on the move, isn’t a program to be carried out by force. It’s Christ who makes the Church go out of herself. In the mission of evangelization, you move because the Holy Spirit pushes you” @Pontifex

A courageous decision? Using the money spent on weapons for a “global Fund” to defeat hunger. This would help avoid many wars and the emigration of many of our brothers and sisters from the poorest nations.
The Bolivian Sisters’ love for the poor shows what it means to be Jesus’ missionary disciples. “Suffering can make us selfish of heart & lead to confrontation, but we also have the capacity to make things an opportunity for fraternity” @Pontifex in Bolivia
