31. PORTA FIDEI
The “door of faith” (Acts 14:27) is always open for us, ushering
us into the life of communion with God and offering entry into
his Church. It is possible to cross that threshold when the word
of God is proclaimed and the heart allows itself to be shaped
by transforming grace. To enter through that door is to set out
on a journey that lasts a lifetime. – Pope Benedict XVI.

32. LOVE & SERVICE

35. Dear young people, the Church depends on you! She needs your
lively faith, your creative charity and the energy of your hope.
(Pope Benedict XVI – Message for WYD 2011)
YOU ARE TO SHOW THE WORLD WHO
GOD IS BECAUSE YOU HAVE…
CHRIST IN YOU
