THE WAY TO HOLINESS
The Saints and the Blessed are the most authoritative witnesses of Christian hope, because they lived it to the full in their existence, between joys and sufferings, implementing the Beatitudes that Jesus preached and which today resonate in the Liturgy (see Mt 5,1-12a ). The evangelical Beatitudes, in fact, are the path to holiness.
Pope Francis Angelus 1 November 2020
