Quotes

• I hope that this Congress next year will be a moment for the Church and society to reflect on the fact that everything really depends, at least for us Catholics and believers, on the Eucharist. Jesus' words have become our Gospel and Jesus’ actions have become our Sacraments. It is fundamental for us to see this in the celebration of the Congress.
