A prayer is truly Christian if it has a universal dimension

Thank you, Lord, for never leaving us alone!

Often we forget the Lord and deal with other gods: money, vanity, pride

The Amazonian peoples have a right to hear the Gospel

I dream of Christian communities capable of generous commitment

This is the first ecology that that we need

I dream of an Amazon region that fights for the rights of the poor

To help awaken their affection and concern for that land which is also “ours”

Wise and blessed is the person who welcomes the pain that comes with love

Jesus Christ offers His mercy to those who endure distress due to situations of frailty, suffering, and weakness

I entrust to the Virgin Mary, Health of the Sick, all those who carry the burden of illness

Faith grows when we invoke the Lord with confidence

I renew my appeal to all parties involved to engage in dialogue and to respect Humanitarian Law in order to safeguard the lives of civilians

The person who lives and spreads the grace of Christ is salt. The person who lets the Gospel shine with good deeds is light.

Saint Bakhita, patron saint of victims of trafficking

One cannot be humble without having suffered humiliation

Our migrant brothers and sisters

In order to be free and to be able to love

The Document on Human Fraternity

My son, my daughter, what are you doing?

Loneliness

The ability to be amazed makes our encounter with the Lord fruitful

Let us pray for consecrated men and women

Whoever keeps their gaze fixed on Jesus learns to live in order to serve

May the Lord give us the grace to send us a prophet always

Welcome the plan that God has for each of us

Let us ask the Lord for the grace to not fear the cross, let us ask for the capacity to feel humiliated, because this is the path He has chosen for us to be saved
