"Faithfulness to the Pope"
"Faithfulness to the Pope includes a clear and definite duty: that of knowing his thought, which he tells us in Encyclicals or other documents. We have to do our part to help all Catholics pay attention to the teaching of the Holy Father, and bring their everyday behaviour into line with it." (The Forge, 633). April 20, 2005
"Where Peter is, There is the Church, There is God"
Love for the Roman Pontiff must be in us a delightful passion, for in him we see Christ (In Love With the Church, 13).. October 16, 2003
"In him we see Christ”
“Love for the Roman Pontiff must be in us a delightful passion, for in him we see Christ.” (St. Josemaría, In Love with the Church, n.13). June 29, 2002
"Help them with your prayers"
"May the daily consideration of the heavy burden which weighs upon the Pope and the bishops move you to venerate and love them with real affection, and to help them with your prayers." (The Forge, 136). February 22, 2002
"To Jesus, closely united to the Pope"
"Offer your prayer, your atonement, and your action for this end: ut sint unum! - that all of us Christians may share one will, one heart, one spirit. This is so that omnes cum Petro ad Iesum per Mariam - that we may all go to Jesus, closely united to the Pope, through Mary." (The Forge, 647). March 20, 2001
"The Church needs priests"
"The Church needs priests, and always will. Ask the Blessed Trinity for them each day, through Holy Mary. And pray that they may be cheerful, hard-working, effective; that they may be well trained: and that they may sacrifice themselves joyfully for their brothers, without feeling that they are victims. (The Forge, 910). November 13, 2000
“One heart and one soul”
As a child of God, with his grace in you, you have to be a strong person, a man or woman of desires and achievements. We are not hothouse plants. We live in the middle of the world, and we have to be able to face up to all the winds that blow, to the heat and the cold, to rain and storms, but always faithful to God and to his Church. (The Forge, 792). June 29, 2000
Saints Peter and Paul, Apostles
Courage! You... can! Don't you see what God's grace did with sleepy-headed Peter, the coward who had denied him..., and with Paul, his fierce and relentless persecutor? (The Way, 483). April 19, 2000
“Union with the Pope is union with Peter”
You must love, venerate, pray and mortify yourself for the Pope, and do so with greater affection each day. For he is the foundation stone of the Church and, throughout the centuries, right to the end of time, he carries out among men that task of sanctifying and governing which Jesus entrusted to Peter. (The Forge, 134). March 07, 2000
“Live a special Communion of Saints”
Communion of Saints.--How shall I explain it? You know what blood-transfusions do for the body? Well that is more or less what the Communion of Saints does for the soul. (The Way, 544).
