Let Us Be Protectors Of

You Can't Have Christ Without The Church.

In Your School You Take Part In Various Activities That Habituate You Not To Shut Yourselves In On Yourselves Or In Your Small World, But To Be Open To Others, Especially To The Poorest And Neediest, To Work To Improve The World In Which We Live. Be Men And Women With Others And For Others, Real Champions In The Service Of Others. To Be Magnanimous With Interior Liberty And A Spirit Of Service, Spiritual Formation Is Necessary. Dear Children, Dear Youths, Love Jesus Christ Ever More!

We Too Can Be Saints In Our Family, In Our Neighborhood, Wherever We Live And Work. Be A Person Who Listens To What People Need, Communicating Not Only To Grieve Or Tell Others About Your Own Problems. Listen In Order To Intercede And Help Out.

Can We Who Have Had The Joy Of Knowing That We Are Not Orphans, That We Have A Father, Be Indifferent To This City Which Asks Of Us, Perhaps Even Unwittingly, Without Being Aware Of It, A Hope That Will Help It Look To The Future With Greater Confidence And Serenity? We Cannot Remain Indifferent. . . . Words Without Witness Are Hot Air. Words Do Not Suffice. It Must Be The True Witness That Paul Speaks Of.

This Christmas May We Be Consistent In Living The Gospel, Welcoming Jesus Into The Centre Of Our Lives.
