Never abbandon prayer, even when it seems pointless to pray.

Through the cross we can touch God’s mercy and be touched by that mercy!

I entrust you to the maternal care of our Mother who lives in the glory of God and is always by our side on our life’s journey.

We ask Mary, our Mother, to help us to pray with a humble heart.

May people see the Gospel in our lives: in our generous and faithful love for Christ and our brothers and sisters.

In Confession we encounter the merciful embrace of the Father. His love always forgives.

A society made up of different cultures must seek unity in respect.

We ask for respect for indigenous peoples whose very identity and existence are threatened.

When there is dialogue in the family, tensions are easily resolved.

We oppose hatred and destruction with goodness. We live in societies of different cultures and religions, but we are brothers and sisters.

Good luck to the athletes at #Rio2016! May you always be messengers of goodwill and true sporting spirit.

God’s forgiveness knows no limits...God looks at the heart that seeks forgiveness. #Assisi #Porziuncola

The secret to joy: never suppress positive curiosity; get involved, because life is meant to be lived.

A huge “thank you”, dear young people! St John Paul II rejoiced in Heaven, and will help you bring the joy of the Gospel wherever you go.

Jesus speaks to you every day. Let His Gospel become yours and let Him be your “navigator” on life’s journey!

God counts on you for who you are, not for what you have. You are valuable in His eyes and your value is priceless.

God love us as we are: no sin, fault or mistake can make Him change His mind.

Jesus is calling you to leave your mark on life: one that transforms your own life and the lives of others.

God is inviting you to dream: He wants to show you that you can make the world a different place.

We have come into the world in order to leave a mark.
