"To carry out this work, which is so necessary, Jesus must always be at the center of your life and you must remain in intimate union with him through prayer, daily personal meditation, faithfulness to the Liturgy of the Hours, and especially the daily devout celebration of the Eucharist," the Pope added. "If you are full of God, you will be true apostles of the new evangelization, because no one can give what he does not have in his heart," he said.

True words of wisdom. Inspiring and hopeful. God Bless all these new priests!
