@laityfamilylife” @Pontifex 25 July 2021 - “It would be good to ask ourselves every day: “What do I bring to Jesus today?”. He can do a lot with one of our prayers, with a gesture of charity for others. This is how God loves to act: He does great things, starting from those small things. #GospelOfTheDay (Jn 6:1–15)” @Pontifex 25 July 2021

- “Let us pray for the Church, that she may receive from the Holy Spirit the grace and strength to reform herself in the light of the Gospel. []” @Pontifex 3 August 2021
