So that our joy may be complete (Pope Francis)


   The life of a family is filled with beautiful moments: rest, meals together, walks in the park or the countryside, visits to grandparents or to a sick person… But if love is missing, joy is missing, nothing is fun. Jesus always gives us that love: he is its endless source. In the sacrament he gives us his Word and he gives us the bread of life, so that our joy may be complete.

--Pope Francis, Pilgrimage of the Families, Oct. 23, 2013
