With the lamp filled with oil and shining

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

I wish … I could be a worthy apostle of my Lord. M. Igilda

Missionary! A mysterious word which had the magical power of dispelling every uncertainty, of awakening better hopes.

The fervour of a missionary's life, his regular, knowledgeable, industrious, untiring activity, the unalterable joy of his life and his perseverance in his work, even in the midst of hardships, travails and difficulties, are always the result of a life of faith

Thought of M. Igilda

Leave with courage, not only with courage, but with intimate joy, joy that must come to you from the consciousness of having chosen the best part, of going in God's name, by God's will, with the authority that comes from God to continue the most divine work among the divine of the salvation of souls.

If the missionary is a man of faith, how many graces can he then obtain for himself and for the souls entrusted to him, how many graces can he store up to bring his projects to a successful conclusion, to make his apostolic endeavours prosper!

God is everything and everything is in His hands. If He wants, He will open the way, He will remove all difficulties, or better, He will give us the strength to face them without retreating.
