Thank you for a wonderful post.

The Pope has told them, as Mother Teresa and other true heroes have told them, that we can't remake the Church to suit the post-modern world. For after all, it is the post-modern world that isn't going to be around tomorrow.

I couldn't find the best lines to quote ... this brought me to tears and I pray for all of the youngsters that we are raising among us that we can instill in them the love of Christ and love of sheer Goodness that these young people reflect.

There is always this gift of Hope and our young, whether children, grandchildren, nieces, nephew or friends' children are our greatest achievement or our biggest folly ... may the Holy Spirit fill us with the Spirit to share with them all and fan that Hope into Righteous thoughts, words, deeds and lives!
