I ask all people of goodwill to help build a culture of encounter, solidarity and peace

Christ comes among us at Christmas: it is the perfect time for a personal encounter with the Lord.

To be an ambassador for Christ means to invite everyone to a personal encounter with Jesus

It is neither a culture of confrontation nor a culture of conflict which builds harmony within and between peoples, but rather a culture of encounter and a culture of dialogue; this is the only way to peace.

Each encounter with Jesus changes our life.

Whenever we encounter another person in love, we learn something new about God.

I invite all Christians, everywhere, at this very moment, to a renewed personal encounter with Jesus Christ, or at least an openness to letting him encounter them.

All Christians need an 'ecological conversion', whereby the effects of their encounter with Jesus Christ become evident in their relationship with the world around them.

The Internet offers immense possibilities for encounter and solidarity. This is something truly good, a gift from God.
