Let us never tire of seeking the risen Christ who gives life in abundance to those who meet him. To find Christ means to discover peace in our hearts. #Easter #ReginaCoeli

In the womb of a woman, God and mankind are united, never to be separated again. In God, there will forever be our humanity and Mary will forever be the Mother of God.

Let us begin the year in the sign of Our Lady, the woman who wove the humanity of God. The rebirth of humanity began with woman. If we want to weave humanity into the webs of our day, we must begin again with woman.

The saints were flesh-and-blood human beings, and were subject to the same effects of original sin that you and I deal with in this life.

Bethlehem means "house of bread." The nativity scene we set up at home reminds us that Jesus is the bread of life: He is the one who nourishes our love, He is the one who gives our families the strength to go on and to forgive us. #Nativityscene

Today we remember the Holy Innocents slaughtered by Herod’s jealous insecurity. How many innocent children are the victims of our society’s cruel indifference today? Heal us, O Lord.

Today we celebrate the feast of St Stephen, the first martyr. This young servant of the Gospel, filled with the Holy Spirit, knew how to speak about Jesus in word, and above all with his life.

The nativity scene is like a living Gospel: it brings the Gospel into homes, schools, workplaces and meeting spaces, hospitals and nursing homes, prisons and town squares. #Nativityscene

I hope that setting up a nativity scene may be an opportunity for you to invite Jesus into your life. Because if He inhabits it, life is reborn. And it really is Christmas. #Nativityscene
