I wish … I could be a worthy apostle of my Lord

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.

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

I trust in you, my God, make my life a small instrument in your hands for the salvation of souls.

The excavations for the foundations of buildings are filled up with building materials; those of the Works of God must be filled with daily sacrifices accepted and accomplished with love.

To live a simple, unpretentious life, happy to be who we are.
