The greatest homage which all the Churches can give to Christ on the threshold
of the third millennium will be to manifest the Redeemer’s
all-powerful presence through the fruits of faith,
hope and charity present in the men and women of
many different tongues and races who have followed Christ.
(Tertio Millenio Adveniente, no.37) |
