“We seek the glory of Jesus Christ; and for this reason, the devil hates the good we do. We have to continue to do good with humility, faithfulness and decisiveness. Rest assured. What a wonderful record of history for succeeding generations!” (Letter 37)

In preparation for the beatification of Venerable Don Giovanni Merlini, every day we will post a phrase by our Venerable extracted from his letters or other documents by the soon-to-be blessed of our Congregation. These sentences were compiled by the Italian Province for this occasion and are now made available to the entire community for reflection, prayer and to know Don Giovanni Merlini more in depth.

We start today and hope to continue to do this on a daily basis until his beatification.

Enjoy!
