Some passages from the pontiff’s speech:

“We are proud of you, we are moved by your youthful daring, nourished by the spirit of sacrifice”.

«You are a promise of spring; you are a certainty of future achievements; you are a sign, a presence, a testimony of the vitality of our Mother Church ”

“You are the happy confirmation of the hope that the Church has placed and places in its faithful and the living response to its delivery”
