God Shows Up With Surprises.

It Is The Paraclete Spirit, The "comforter", Who Grants Us The Courage To Take To The Streets Of The World, Bringing The Gospel! The Holy Spirit Makes Us Look To The Horizon And Drive Us To The Very Outskirts Of Existence In Order To Proclaim Life In Jesus Christ. Let Us Ask Ourselves: Do We Tend To Stay Closed In On Ourselves, On Our Group, Or Do We Let The Holy Spirit Open Us To Mission?

Tell Me, When You Give Alms Do You Look Into The Eyes Of The Man Or Woman To Whom You Give Alms? . . . And When You Give Alms, Do You Touch The Hand Of The One To Whom You Give Alms, Or Do You Toss The Coin?

I Don't Live In The Papal Residence. I Live In A Simple Apartment Behind The Vatican Gas Station.

I Want To Express My Closeness To The People Of The Philippines Who Have Been Struck By A Strong Earthquake, And I Invite You To Pray For That Dear Nation, Which In Recent Days Has Suffered Different Calamities.

Dear Young People, Always Be Missionaries Of The Gospel, Every Day And In Every Place.
