Given such circumstances, isn't it possible to understand why people would want to escape from it all and make a trial of joining some community that would provide them with a model for living?”
• “Social welfare is not just a department, a field of activity. Those who work there should have the awareness that this is the Church itself.”
• “Once I became a priest, I understood that the relationship with others is fundamental. As I encountered social problems and became passionate about them, I saw that the way of the Carmel was not for me. This is why I became a diocesan priest.”
