Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Concluding his homily at last Sunday’s Mass with New Evangelizers, Pope Benedict said:
…May the Virgin Mary, who was not afraid to answer “yes” to the Word of the Lord, and, after having conceived Him in her womb, went out full of joy and hope, always be your model and your guide. Learn from the Mother of the Lord and our Mother to be humble and at the same time brave, simple and prudent; balanced and strong, not with the force of the world, but with that of truth. Amen.

Dear Kouyate,

Thanks for your reply. Yes, and what makes them especially beautiful to me is that I see Pope Benedict XVI living the truth he preaches. What a gift he is to the Church and to the world!

Each of us is called to bless the Church and the world by bringing Christ as Mary did. She brought Him into the world physically, and continues to bring Him spiritually. We carry Him in our daily lives, to all we meet. We also carry Him in our prayers, to those we may only meet in heaven. The Church exists to evangleize!
