Jesus does not leave us alone because we are precious to Him.

In witnessing to the faith what counts is not success, but fidelity to Christ.

Today we give glory to God for the work of Saint Dominic in the service of the Gospel which he preached with his words and his life.

Forgiveness sets our hearts free and allows us to start anew. Forgiveness gives hope. Without forgiveness, the Church is not built up.

Hope is the virtue of a heart that doesn't lock itself into darkness, that doesn't dwell on the past, but is able to see a tomorrow.

Other people are gifts to be received with respect, especially if they are weak and frail, because Christ comes to meet us in them.

In the name of Jesus we can make known, through our witness, that peace is possible!

The Gospel is Good News filled with contagious joy, for it contains and offers new life.

We effectively do good when we do it without seeking reward and in the concrete situations of everyday life.

Like Saint Ignatius of Loyola, let us be won over by the Lord Jesus and, led by Him, place ourselves at the service of others.
