The essence of the Christian Life is to belong to Christ to such an extent that it transforms every aspect of our lives. This transformation will be seen especially in the way we relate to the poorest and neediest among us.

We are made in the image of God, who is Love. To achieve our fulfillment in life we must be people who give of ourselves.

The history of the Basilica. Constantine gave the palace and basilica to Pope Melchiade in 311-314. When it was destroyed by fire in 1360 the pope decided to transfer to the Vatican.

As Christians, we are a people of hope, not because of anything that this world can offer, but of the life God has extended to us through Jesus, his Son.

Authentic love for God will always lead us to a genuine love for our neighbor. We know how great is our love for God by the love we have for the person we love least.

In the unity of man and woman we are most in the image of God. Created in God's image we are to transform the world to reflect the divine to people everywhere.

We are invited to an eternal banquet;not a banquet of food and drink, but a banquet of sharing forever in the life and love of God.

God seeks from us, his chosen vineyard, good fruit. He seeks the fruit of love, justice, peace and holiness of life.

Being decisive in following Christ

An awareness of God's love and mercy empowers our love of God to Grow
