It is necessary to wake up and establish the missionary feeling in the souls, then the world will change, and each Christian will be an apostle in his turn!

The ardent desire for missionary life was nevertheless fixed in my mind and was tormenting me day and night. M. Igilda

Let us not let the opportunity pass to perform acts of humility, simplicity, gentleness and sisterly charity
