May the Risen Jesus help us to rise from our miseries

The Lord chooses whom He wants for His Works. He does not need either our talents or our external gifts. Rather, He chooses most unsuitable persons to show that it is He who works, and makes those very works flourish. M. G. Dones

Holiness is not a privilege of a few people, but a duty for all men of good will. I have decided to start living. M. Igilda

Let us thank the Lord very much for having called us to serve Him in religious life and let us live it in a holy way. M. G. Dones

Well, we shall be the poor fisher women, a “family” whose members are truly missionary souls concerned about … the true spirit of fraternity that should unite all men on earth in a perfect charity. M. Igilda

May God bless us, comfort us, encourage us, sanctify us: we are his, ready to work for Him, as he wants, when he wants, where he wants: We have truly to wait “with the lamp filled with oil and shining”, because, when we are not expecting it, our Lord will come to lead us to work in His Vineyard. M. Igilda

Cercavo di sacrificare ogni mio desiderio, qualunque piccola soddisfazione, per far compagnia ai missionari nei disagi della loro vita apostolica. Soffrire per loro, soffrire con loro. M. Igilda

The past is gone and we must entrust it to the divine Mercy. Our infidelity must serve us as a spur to begin again to run with fervour along the way of holiness and thus make up for the time lost. M. G. Dones

One cannot aspire for missionary life without being trained in mortification … of the mind, of the heart, of the will … because the missionary must be ready for everything. M. Igilda
