The

1854, teaches that the most Blessed Virgin Mary, in the first instant of her
conception, by a singular grace and privilege granted by Almighty God, in view
of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the human race, was preserved free
from all stain of original sin.

The Lord God, beauty, goodness, truth,
tenderness, the fullness of love -- all that awaits us, and all those who
preceded us and died in the Lord are there, in heaven with God. Even the best

The Church, a pilgrim in history, rejoices
through the intercession of the saints and blessed who support her in the
mission of proclaiming the Gospel; on the other, she, like Jesus, shares the
tears of those who suffer the separation from loved ones, and like Him and
through Him echoes thanks to the Father who has delivered us from the dominion
of sin and death.

There
is an urgent need to reaffirm that the central ideal of mission is Jesus
Christ, and that this ideal demands the total gift of oneself to the proclamation
of the Gospel. On this point there can be no compromise: those who by God’s
grace accept the mission, are called to live the mission. For them, the
proclamation of Christ in the many peripheries of the world becomes their way

We
cannot but express our outrage at the decision of the Supreme Court of Canada
to create a new “constitutional right” in Canada, the so-called “right” to
suicide. The ruling would legalize an action that, from time immemorial, has
been judged immoral: the taking of innocent life. Moreover, it puts at risk the
