Good morning!

I thank you for this warm welcome! Thank you very much! Thank you for having come and for celebrating our Cardinal, who by his strong and fruitful thought has done so much good for the dignity of the human person, in his service and in finding in every person the talents which the Lord has given them to “trade” in life. Thank you, Your Eminence, for all of this! Thank you very much!

And thanks also to all of you for this work. Each person carries out his own small task, he does what is his to do, but everything goes forward for the good of all! Thank you very much for your collaboration, for your work and for your membership in Villa Nazareth, which does so much good for the Church and in the Church. Thank you very much! I wish you a happy and holy Christmas! And I ask you to pray for me, because I need it! Thank you very much!

Let us all together pray a Hail Mary to Our Lady. (Hail Mary and blessing)

Pray for me, do not forget!
