TO HONOUR THE FATHER

God longs for us men to love Him and that this love be also expressed in a special worship and veneration.

We can imagine what it is like when we ourselves are filled with love and want to share this love with others… And if we, who are so imperfect, are urged to transmit this love to others, how much more our Father, who is the very source of love! In fact, the worship and veneration that God the Father asks for, have as their profound aim that our hearts turn to Him and that we discover and correspond to the true sense of our existence.

THE EUCHARIST

How much has our Father cared for us in opening to us the ways of salvation! His treasures are always accessible to us.

THE CROSS IS MY WAY TO YOU

“But as for me, it is out of the question that I should boast at all, except of the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ”, exclaims St Paul (Gal 6:14). Read More

THE WEAKNESS OF MY CHILDREN

In His compassion, our Father embraces our entire reality. As Creator he has granted us a wonderful existence as human beings, which we must live fully in His grace. He always invites us to receive everything from His hand, so that we can lead a life that corresponds to our vocation. Our Father has thought of us from all eternity, and when the time came to call us into existence, He lovingly pronounced his creative “Yes”.
