P. Benedict XVI
“... it is important to discover the true face of God.” P. Benedict XVI
“Pope John Paul II, as well as revealing the true face of the Church in
the many saints that he canonized, also asked pardon for the wrong
that was done in the course of history through the words and deeds
of members of the Church.“ P. Benedict XVI
“If we think and live according to our communion with
Christ, then our eyes will be opened.”
“Then we
will no
longer be
content to
scrape a
living just for
ourselves,
but we will
see where
and how we
are needed.”
P. Benedict XVI
“Here in
Cologne we
discover the
joy of
belonging to a
family as vast
as the world
including
Heaven and
earth, the
past, the
present, the
future and
every part of
the earth. “
P. Benedict XVI
“In this great band of pilgrims we walk side by side with Christ, we
walk with the star that enlightens our history.” P. Benedict XVI
“Let us set off on this pilgrimage of the spirit and let us ask him to
be our guide. AMEN.” P. Benedict XVI
“Seek communion in faith, like fellow travelers who continue together
to follow the path of the great pilgrimage that the Magi from the East
first pointed out to us.” P. Benedict XVI
“A great joy cannot be kept to oneself. It has to be passed on.”
P. Benedict XVI
“Anyone who has discovered Christ must lead others to him.” P. Benedict XVI
“I would have liked to
tour the hill in the
Popemobile and to be
closer to each one of
you, individually.
Unfortunately, this has
proved impossible, but
I greet each one of you
from the bottom of my
heart. “
P. Benedict XVI
“The Lord sees and loves each individual person and
we are all the living Church for one another” P. Benedict XVI
“ ...let us thank God for
this moment in which
he is giving us the gift
of the mystery of his
presence and the
possibility of being in
communion with HIM.”
P. Benedict XVI
“Yesterday evening we
came together in the
presence of the
Sacred Host, in which
Jesus becomes for us
the bread that
sustains and feeds us
(cf. Jn 6: 35), and
there we began our
inner journey of
adoration. In the
Eucharist, adoration
must become union.”
P. Benedict
XVI
“Jesus' hour
seeks to
become our
own hour and
will indeed
become so if we
allow ourselves,
through the
celebration of
the Eucharist,
to be drawn into
that process of
transformation
that the Lord
intends to bring
about. “
P. Benedict XVI
“Do not be deterred
from taking part
in Sunday Mass,
and help others to
discover it too. ...
because the
Eucharist
releases the joy
that we need so
much, and we
must learn to
grasp it ever more
deeply, we must
learn to love it.
P. Benedict XVI
The Eucharist must become the center of our
lives.” P. Benedict XVI
“Let us discover the intimate riches of
the Church's liturgy and its true
greatness: it is not we who are
celebrating for ourselves, but it is the
living God himself who is preparing a
banquet for us.”
P. Benedict XVI
“I know that you ... that you want to pledge yourselves to build a
better world. Let others see this, let the world see it. “ P. Benedict XVI
“through your love above all, the world will be able to discover the
star that we follow as believers.” P. Benedict XVI
“Let us go forward with Christ and let us live our lives
as true worshippers of God!” P. Benedict XVI
 We have come to the conclusion of this marvelous
celebration and indeed of the Twentieth World Youth
Day. In my heart I sense welling up within me a single
thought: "Thank you!" I am sure that this thought finds an
echo in each one of you. God himself has implanted it in
our hearts and he has sealed it with this Eucharist which
literally means "thanksgiving". Yes, dear young people,
our gratitude, born from faith, is expressed in our song of
praise to Him, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, who has given
us yet another sign of his immense love. P. Benedict XVI
