They Give Up All to Embrace Christ.

sistersop.com - (Three quotes from Pope Benedict XVI)

1) Dear young people, if the Lord calls you to live more intimately at His service, respond generously. You may be certain: life dedicated to God is never spent in vain.
(To young people in Italy, Sept. 8, 2007. Read entire address at Catholic Culture.)

2) Today, as in all ages, there is no lack of generous souls ready to give up everyone and everything to embrace Christ and His Gospel, consecrating their existence to His service within communities characterized by enthusiasm, generosity and joy. (Reflection on Consecrated Life, Feb. 17, 2008. Read entire address on Catholic Culture.)

3) When we give ourselves to Christ, we receive a hundredfold in return. Yes, open wide the doors to Christ and you will find true life. (Talk at World Youth Day, April 24, 2005. Read address on World Youth Day for Pilgrims.)
