Once Capital Becomes An Idol And Guides People's Decisions, Once Greed For Money Presides Over The Entire Socioeconomic System, It Ruins Society, It Condemns And Enslaves Men And Women, It Destroys Human Fraternity, It Sets People Against One Another And It Even Puts At Risk Our Common Home.

Every Christian Can Witness To God In The Workplace, Not Only With Words, But Above All With An Honest Life.

This Visit Is Meant To Express My Closeness To Our Brothers And Sisters Who Endured The Suffering, Loss And Devastation Caused By Typhoon Yolanda. Together With Many People Throughout The World, I Have Admired The Heroic Strength, Faith And Resilience Demonstrated By So Many Filipinos In The Face Of This Natural Disaster, And So Many Others.

Above All I Ask Leaders And Legislators And The Entire International Community Above All To Confront The Reality Of Those Who Have Been Displaced By Force, With Effective Projects And New Approaches In Order To Protect Their Dignity, To Improve The Quality Of Their Life And To Face The Challenges That Are Emerging From Modern Forms Of Persecution, Oppression And Slavery.

Pay Attention, My Young Friends: To Go Against The Current; This Is Good For The Heart, But We Need Courage To Swim Against The Tide. ... We Christians Were Not Chosen By The Lord For Little Things; Push Onwards Toward The Highest Principles. Stake Your Lives On Noble Ideals, My Dear Young People!
