At Our Lady of Perpetual Help Minor Seminary in Sriracha, ThailandWe must find the time, maybe an hour, to enter into an empty church and stay before Jesus in his Eucharist. He is in the midst of us. He knows everything. And there is, in him, in his silence, an infinite peace. And so, little by little, that very disposition will pass into our own heart. Suffering will remain, but it will have lost its poison; you will feel, little by little, set free.
Charles Cardinal Journet (1891–1975)
