No One Listens Willingly To Someone Who

Holy Week Challenges Us To Step Outside Ourselves So As To Attend To The Needs Of Others: Those Who Long For A Sympathetic Ear, Those In Need Of Comfort Or Help. We Should Not Simply Remain In Our Own Secure World, That Of The Ninety-nine Sheep Who Never Strayed From The Fold, But We Should Go Out, With Christ, In Search Of The One Lost Sheep, However Far It May Have Wandered.

We Can Walk When We Want To, We Can Build Many Things, But If We Do Not Witness To Jesus Christ Then It Doesn't Matter. We Might Become A Philanthropic Ngo But We Wouldn't Be The Church, The Bride Of The Lord.

There Are Some Things We Really Need To Take Care Of: The Children, And Grandparents. Children, Whether They Are Young Or Older, They Are The Strength That Moves Us Forward. We Place Our Hope In Them.grandparents Are The Living Memory Of The Family. They Passed On The Faith, They Transmitted The Faith, To Us.

There Is Another Temptation Which We Must Especially Guard Against: The Simplistic Reductionism Which Sees Only Good Or Evil; Or, If You Will, The Righteous And Sinners. The Contemporary World, With Its Open Wounds Which Affect So Many Of Our Brothers And Sisters, Demands That We Confront Every Form Of Polarization Which Would Divide It Into These Two Camps.

Press On! Don't Let Yourselves Be Robbed Of Hope. Understood?
