Vatican City, 14 March 2014 (VIS) –
At 9 a.m. today, the five days of spiritual exercises held in the
Casa del Divin Maestro in Ariccia came to an end with the song of
Praise and the final meditation. The Holy Father thanked Fr. Angelo
De Donatis, priest of San Marco Evangelista all'Campidoglio, for his
daily meditations.
“We now return home with a good seed:
the seed of the Word of God. … The Lord will send the rain and the
seed will grow … and will bear fruit. We thank the Lord for the
seed and for the rain he will send to us, but we also wish to thank
the sower of the seed. ...We are all sinners, but all of us wish to
follow Jesus more closely, without losing hope in the promise and
also without losing our sense of humour”.
The Holy Father then returned to the
Vatican to resume scheduled activities.
