Hope never fails
If you are young in years, but feel weak, weary or disillusioned, ask Jesus to renew you. With him, hope never fails. #ChristusVivit https://t.co/BCRJCpKGgW

The daily presence of Christ
The Church is young when she receives ever anew the strength born of God’s Word, the Eucharist, and the daily presence of Christ and the power of His Spirit in our lives. The Church is young when she shows herself capable of constantly returning to her source. #ChristusVivit

A pilgrim of peace and fraternity
Dear Moroccan friends, I am coming as a pilgrim of peace and fraternity. We Christians and Muslims believe in God, the Creator and the Merciful, who created people to live like brothers and sisters, respecting each other in their diversity, and helping one another in their needs.
