Pope Benedict XVI Quote

The world needs this renewal! In so many of our societies, side by side with material prosperity, a spiritual desert is spreading interior emptiness, unnamed fears, a quiet sense of despair. How many of our contemporaries have built broken and empty cisterns in a desperate search for meaning - the ultimate meaning that only love can give?.... The Church also needs this renewal! She needs your faith, your idealism and your generosity, so that she can always be young in the Spirit!
