Pay special attention to young people, who are numerous and active in this parish. May the Christian community help them to be open to love, to live their engagement as a moment of grace, to prepare properly for marriage. In their basic mission may they feel encouraged by the Pope and assisted by all believers. I would like affectionately to greet the Institute of the Religious Teachers Venerini, who have their generalate here, and the Institute of the Sisters of Nazareth, who also work at the service of youth. May God bless and make fruitful their efforts of Christian education in the scholastic world, also with the help of families.
Love is the soul of everything.
It is a divine energy which gives strength to believers and makes them missionaries at the service of the Gospel. Dear faithful of this parish of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, be witnesses to the Gospel of love. Spread God s love among everyone who lives, works, studies or spends his free time in this neighbourhood. Serve Christ s truth with tenacity, courage and fidelity. May the Lord, who promised to remain with his disciples always, accompany you on your way.
