Father, it is better to suffer like this; it is better to be consumed slowly, insensibly by this great missionary longing rather than enjoy a relative tranquillity, without this fire which never ceases to burn.

The ardent desire for missionary life was nevertheless fixed in my mind and was tormenting me day and night. M. Igilda
I wish … I could be a worthy apostle of my Lord. M. Igilda
