The Church does not belong to popes, bishops, priests or the lay faithful; the Church in every moment belongs solely to Christ.

The way of the Church is precisely to leave her four walls behind and to go out in search of those who are distant, those essentially on the ‘outskirts’ of life. It is to adopt fully God’s own approach, to follow the Master who said: ’Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick; I have come to call not the righteous, but sinners.’

May every Church and Christian community be a place of mercy amid so much indifference.

It is better to have a Church that is wounded but out in the streets, than a Church that is sick because it is closed in on itself.

This is the mission of the Church: to heal wounded hearts, open doors, liberate, tell people that God is good, God forgives all, God is father, God is tender, God always waits for us.

Let the church always be a place of mercy and hope, where everyone is welcomed, loved and forgiven.

The thing the Church needs most today is the ability to heal wounds and to warm the hearts of the faithful; it needs nearness, proximity. I see the Church as a field hospital after battle.

I dream of a church that is a mother and shepherdess. The church’s ministers must be merciful, take responsibility for the people, and accompany them like the good Samaritan, who washes, cleans and raises up his neighbor. This is pure Gospel; God is greater than sin.
