3 quotes
“In spite of the diversity of national situations and - within a Country such as Switzerland - of individual dioceses, we all need to be encouraged in hope. The only hope is Christ. However, the Synod invites us to see Him alive in His Church. Therefore also the Church must become a sign and source of hope in this world.”

“The Kingdom will never come in this life. The Kingdom, in its totality, its splendor, will come with Jesus’ advent at the end of time. But, meanwhile, one builds, and sows. And the evangelizer, in seeing what is positive in each culture, as well as in revealing its limits and contradictions, tries, illumined by the Gospel, to improve it. We see it in the history of the Church.”

“I would love to be present, in the office or as emeritus, in the celebrations that will mark the end of the works. But I am far more interested in giving all my strength to reinforce the unity of a diocese that I found quite divided.”
