“I long for people to discover for themselves the joy and peace that can only come from knowing God’s love through Jesus Christ. I long to see the Church, renewed in the power of the Holy Spirit, finding ways of sharing the Good News with those under 50 years old, many of whom have only negative views of the Church.”
