Christians are witnesses not to a theory, but to a Person: Christ risen and alive, the one Saviour of all.

Our life must be centred on what is essential, on Jesus Christ Our life must be centred on what is essential, on Jesus Christ. Everything else is secondary.

Do not be content to live a mediocre Christian life: walk with determination along the path of holiness.  

Holiness doesn’t mean doing extraordinary things, but doing ordinary things with love and faith.

To be saints is not a privilege for the few, but a vocation for everyone.

Being a Christian is not just about following commandments: it is about letting Christ take possession of our lives and transform them.
