Happy Feast Day! The Lord redeemed all of us, all of us, with the Blood of Christ: all of us, not just Catholics. Everyone! ‘Father, the atheists?’ Even the atheists! Everyone! And this Blood makes us children of God of first class. We are created children in the likeness of God and the Blood of Christ has redeemed us all. And we have a duty to do good. And this commandment for everyone to do good, I think, is a beautiful path towards peace. If we, each doing our own part, if we do good to others, if we meet there, doing good, and we go slowly, gently, little by little we will make that culture of encounter. We need that so much. We must meet one another doing good.” But I do not believe, father, I am an atheist!’ But do good: we will meet one another there! From the homily of Pope Francis - May 22, 2013 On this great Feast of the Precious Blood, may the words of the Holy Father inspires us and may all members, associates and friends of the Congregation, meet one another on this feast, as children of God doing good! Very Rev. Francesco Bartoloni, C.PP.S. Moderator General
